Hoyo de Monterrey Epicure No.1

The Epicure No.1 is a legend amongst Gran Coronas. While the Epicure No.2 achieved somewhat of a cult status during the 1990's, the No.1 is just as refined, with a mild, fruity aroma, perfect for the summer months.

Because it is a Gran Corona it provides a longer lasting smoke than the Epi 2, the ring gauge being more conducive to a dry inhale.


Like all cigars from Hoyo de Monterrey, it is hand rolled in Havana, as opposed to being machine rolled like many cigars thesedays. It is one of the most enjoyable cigars on the market and comes highly recommended.


The Epicure No.1 is available from all good cigar stockists, prices starting at around £10 for a single.
