Every Hoyo de Monterrey Double Coronas is guaranteed 100% authentic, sourced directly from Habanos S.A. with the official seal and full traceability from Vuelta Abajo to your door.
Few cigars carry the reputation of the Hoyo de Monterrey Double Coronas. The marca traces its roots to 1865, when José Gener established the brand on the slopes of the legendary Vuelta Abajo region, and that long pedigree shows in the refinement of this format. Measuring 194mm with a 49 ring gauge, it is one of the grand classic shapes of the Habanos portfolio, prized by connoisseurs for its measured pace and elegant balance rather than brute power.
The opening third leans gentle and creamy, with soft almond and a light dusting of cocoa carried on smooth, generous smoke. As the cigar settles into its middle section, earthier tones emerge alongside a warm thread of cinnamon spice and a faint sweetness reminiscent of caramel. The final third gains depth and a touch more intensity, the honeyed finish lingering while the body firms up toward the medium end of the scale. Construction is typically flawless, rewarding patience over the full burn.
This is a cigar that repays cellaring. Kept in a well seasoned humidor held around 65 to 70 percent relative humidity and roughly 18 degrees Celsius, the Double Coronas mellows beautifully over several years, with the spice rounding off and the creamy sweetness deepening. The thicker ring gauge and long filler give it plenty of leaf to evolve, so a box laid down with patience often drinks far better than a freshly arrived stick.
The Double Coronas suits the smoker who values length and subtlety over sheer strength. If you can spare ninety minutes to two hours and prefer a refined, gradually building experience, this format is a natural fit. Newer enthusiasts will appreciate its approachable Mild to Medium body, while seasoned aficionados return to it for its heritage and the slow reveal of its flavors.
