The Grand Epicure is part of the Edición Limitada series of cigars and was released by Hoyo de Monterrey in 2013. This cigar has a non-standard Montesco vitola, measuring 5⅛” with a 55 ring gauge. The Edición Limitada series are typically aged for two years and produce dark, intense cigars. The Grand Epicure boasts a Colorado Maduro wrapper that smells of earth, leather, and cocoa.  

After sparking the Hoyo de Monterrey Grand Epicure el 2013, you’ll be met with a strong flavor of cedar and leather, with notes of dark chocolate and bitter coffee rounded out by the honeyed sweetness of dried fruit. The loose draw allows the bitter and sweet to perfectly combine, evening each other out. This cigar produces copious amounts of smoke that provide a decadent creamy mouthfeel to complement the luxurious tobacco.
