There’s no denying that Cuban cigars are getting thicker whilst thinner, traditional sizes are disappearing. The Hoyo de Monterrey Le Hoyo de Río Seco is a perfect example. At a ring gauge of 56, it’s the thickest regular-production cigar to come out of Cuba.
Whether you like heavy ring gauges or not, the Río Seco inarguably delivers impressions of cinnamon, nutmeg, oak and caramel that are nuanced and delicious.
