Hoyo de Monterrey Oscuro and Hoyo de Monterrey Rojo are two new blends that signal the storied brand’s new beginning. “The launch of these blends represents more than just new cigars. They are about honoring the brand’s deep-seated foundation in Honduras,” a senior brand manager stated in a press release. “As one of the first Cuban ex-pat brands available in the US, Hoyo de Monterrey laid the foundation for Honduran cigar-making nearly 60 years ago and has become a living legend in the world of premium cigars. With the launch of ‘Rojo’ and ‘Oscuro,’ the brand’s journey is reflected in its commitment to balancing traditional Honduran craftsmanship against the handmade cigar category’s ever-changing tides.” Rojo uses a wrapper from the Jamastran Valley in Honduras over a Nicaraguan binder and fillers from the Dominican Republic, Honduras and Nicaragua. The Oscuro uses a Brazilian Mata Fina Oscuro wrapper—the company says is the first time this wrapper has been used for a Hoyo de Monterrey—over an Ecuadorian Sumatra binder and fillers from the Dominican Republic, Honduras and Nicaragua. Both blends are medium bodied in strength but loaded with outstanding flavor that is the Honduran hallmark of the brand. These blends are not to be missed!
