The Hoyo de Monterrey Epicure No.3 is a refined and aromatic Cuban cigar that marks an exciting evolution in the celebrated Epicure line. As the first figurado (tapered) shape in the brand’s modern history, it delivers a smooth yet flavourful experience that balances elegance, creaminess, and sophistication — true to the Hoyo de Monterrey tradition.

Handmade in Havana at the La Corona factory, each cigar is crafted from select tobaccos grown in the Vuelta Abajo region of Pinar del Río — Cuba’s most prestigious tobacco-growing area. The blend reflects the brand’s signature light character while offering a richer, more concentrated delivery thanks to its broad 54-ring gauge and tapered head.

The smoke opens with cedar and gentle spice, developing into layers of honey, vanilla, and sweet cream. Midway through, soft hints of toasted nuts, floral undertones, and light cocoa appear, leading to a smooth, lingering finish. The draw is effortless, the burn even, and the aroma delicately fragrant — a true reflection of Hoyo de Monterrey’s finesse.

Presented in the striking Petit Belicoso format, the Epicure No.3 produces an engaging 45-minute experience that appeals to both seasoned aficionados and those discovering the brand. It’s an ideal choice for anyone seeking a light, aromatic Cuban cigar that delivers refined complexity in an approachable size.
