Hoyo De Monterrey Epicure De Luxe (Lcdh)

Hoyo de Monterrey Epicure de Luxe (LCDH) is a Cuban cigar from the Hoyo de Monterrey family, presented as a special La Casa del Habano edition. Made by Habanos S.A., it reflects the identity of one of Cuba’s most recognised cigar brands while offering a compact Petit Robusto format for a considered smoking session.

The Hoyo de Monterrey name is linked to the plantation of the same name. Its historic entrance bears the inscription “Hoyo de Monterrey. José Gener. 1860”, a detail that connects the brand with the longstanding agricultural and cigar-making tradition of Cuba. This heritage remains central to the character of the Epicure de Luxe, whose construction brings together Cuban tobacco in the wrapper, binder and filler.

Format and construction

• Vitola: Petit Robusto
• Length: 4 1/2 inches (114 mm)
• Ring gauge: 52
• Strength: Medium to full

Its 4 1/2-inch length and 52 ring gauge give the cigar a broad, practical format, while the medium-to-full strength places it within the more substantial expressions of the Hoyo de Monterrey range. The Colorado wrapper contributes to its distinctive visual identity, complementing the traditional presentation associated with this Cuban brand.

Flavour profile

The listed flavour profile combines orange zest, toasted notes and cappuccino. These references suggest a progression that moves between citrus brightness, roasted impressions and a smooth coffee character, while preserving the recognisable identity of the Hoyo de Monterrey house style. Within the same Epicure family, the Hoyo de Monterrey Epicure No.1 and Hoyo de Monterrey Epicure No.2 provide further points of reference for the line. As an LCDH edition, the Epicure de Luxe occupies a specific place within the brand’s portfolio, bringing together Cuban tobacco, established heritage and a carefully defined Petit Robusto format.
