About this cigar: Le Hoyo de Río Seco is the latest addition to the Le Hoyo Series. Considered a heavy ring gauge cigar, the format of this vitola de Galera 'Aromosos' sizing 140 mm in length with a ring gauge of 56, is set to become the benchmark for Hoyo de Monterrey smokers avid of medium length Habanos. Presented in SLB's of 10 and 25, this new vitola sports the smooth typical HDM blend that will appeal for those who prefer less strength, great elegance and complexity.
San Juan y Martinez is a small town in Vuelta Abajo (the main source of tobacco for Habanos) which gives it name to the district that is protected as a Denomination of Origin (DOP). The new heavy ring gauge cigars joining the Le Hoyo range not only take its name from this district but also only use Seco and Ligero leaves in the blend that are grown there which gives the cigars a rich finish whilst maintaining a refined light aroma that is a character of the Hoyo de Monterrey brand.

Replicating the green found on the brand’s dressed boxes, this striking leather case certainly stands out from the crowd. It comes with three light-bodied Hoyo de Monterrey Epicure No.1 cigars.
The Petit Robusto has proved to be a very popular size since the launch of the Hoyo de Monterrey Petit Robusto in 2004 (4” (102mm) x 50 Ring gauge). Since then only one more brand has been awarded this vitola (Romeo y Julieta Petit Churchill) and they remain the only two currently available in the standard Habanos portfolio.
The Seleccion Petit Robustos gift box offers a unique opportunity to enjoy this size in other leading Habanos marques; Cohiba, Montecristo, Partagas, and H.Upmann, with the current Romeo y Julieta completing the set of five brands.
Each “book style” box contains ten cigars (two from each brand) with strips of cedar with magnets in each end securing the cigars in place.
