Vintage Hoyo de Monterrey Le Hoyo du Député – A 2001

The 2001 Vintage Hoyo de Monterrey Le Hoyo du Député is an exceptional, highly refined example of Cuban mastery at its most subtle and refined expression. Being a part of the Le Hoyo Series, this cigar is specifically created to honor elegance, delicacy, and complexity in aromas—a favorite among veteran connoisseurs who appreciate the subtle expression of Hoyo.

Wrapped in the 110mm (4.3 inches) long by 38 ring gauge Trabuco vitola, the cigar is short, trim, and perfect for an impromptu, refined smoke. Despite its compact size, the over two decades of aging blend produce a grand tapestry of flavors: light cedar, creamy vanilla, toasted grain, floral nuances, and a hint of white pepper. Strength has been softened with aging, and complexity and sweetness are accentuated by a silky, chilled draw.

This 2001 vintage is now extinct and much harder to find, and therefore is a collector’s piece to be cherished. For nostalgia or deliberate aging, Le Hoyo du Député serves as a reminder of vintage Cuban sophistication in a small size.
