Welcome to one of the most beloved and consistently praised cigars in the entire Habanos portfolio. The Hoyo Epicure No.2 Cabinet of 25 delivers twenty-five perfectly constructed Cuban Robustos that have earned a permanent place in humidors across the United Kingdom and beyond. Whether you are a seasoned aficionado or someone discovering the refined world of mild Cuban cigars for the first time, this cabinet represents outstanding value, authenticity and smoking pleasure.
The Hoyo de Monterrey brand traces its roots back to 1865, when Spanish immigrant José Gener established a plantation in the heart of the legendary Vuelta Abajo tobacco region of Cuba. The name “Hoyo” literally means “hole” or low-lying valley, referring to the fertile river banks of San Juan y Martínez where some of the finest tobacco leaves in the world are grown. Gener’s plantation quickly gained a reputation for producing elegant, aromatic leaf that prioritised refinement over power.
Today, Hoyo de Monterrey remains synonymous with lightness, complexity and approachability. Unlike heavier brands such as Partagás or Bolívar, Hoyo focuses on delicate yet multi-layered flavour profiles. The Epicure series, and particularly the Hoyo Epicure No.2, sits at the very top of this range. It is widely regarded as the benchmark Cuban Robusto – the cigar that many UK smokers return to again and again.
Each cigar in this Cabinet of 25 measures 4⅞ inches (124 mm) in length with a generous 50 ring gauge. This classic Robusto format offers the perfect balance between smoking time and flavour concentration. You can expect a comfortable 45 to 60 minutes of pure enjoyment.
The wrapper is typically a silky Colorado or Colorado Claro leaf with a soft sheen and minimal veins. Construction is generally excellent, delivering a firm yet open draw and an even burn that requires only occasional touch-ups.
The Hoyo Epicure No.2 is celebrated for its elegant progression. It never overwhelms; instead it invites you to slow down and appreciate every nuance.
First Third The opening is soft, creamy and immediately inviting. Notes of creamy cedar, toasted almonds and a gentle honeyed sweetness greet the palate. There is a light floral quality and a subtle white-pepper tickle on the retrohale that adds structure without aggression. The smoke is cool and abundant, coating the mouth with a refined creaminess that is the hallmark of a well-aged mild Cuban cigar.
Second Third As the cigar develops, the profile deepens beautifully. The honeyed sweetness becomes more pronounced, joined by roasted nuts, light cocoa, vanilla biscuit and a soft tea-like delicacy. Many smokers detect a pleasant mineral or earthy undertone that grounds the sweetness. The body remains light to medium, never becoming heavy. This is the section where the Hoyo Epicure No.2 truly shines – complex yet perfectly balanced.
Final Third The last third brings a warm, toasty finish with hints of nutmeg, light spice and continuing cedar. The creaminess persists right to the end, leaving a clean, elegant aftertaste. Unlike stronger Cubans that can turn bitter or harsh near the nub, the Epicure No.2 stays refined and enjoyable until the final puffs.
This consistent, approachable character is exactly why so many UK cigar enthusiasts keep a Cabinet of 25 of Hoyo Epicure No.2 in their humidors. It performs reliably whether smoked mid-morning with coffee, in the afternoon with a light whisky, or in the evening with a glass of Pinot Noir or champagne.
