Hoyo de Monterrey Excalibur

A regal everyday blend with a name to match — the Excalibur line is Hoyo de Monterrey's tribute to the sword in the stone, and the Epicure is its most approachable draw.

Handmade in Honduras under a silky Connecticut Shade wrapper, with a long-leaf core of Honduran, Nicaraguan, and Dominican tobaccos. The result is smooth, rich, and quietly complex — mellow-to-medium in body, with notes of nougat, cedar, and a whisper of spice. An easy, polished smoke that rewards a slow afternoon.
