The cigar that was inspired by the legendary sword of King Arthur, Excalibur strikes a perfect balance between the straightforward taste of its rich filler tobaccos and the smooth-smoking flavor of its Connecticut Shade wrapper. After the cigars are rolled by master cigar makers in a tradition that goes back to 1845, they are carefully packed in handsome boîte-nature boxes of Spanish cedar to enhance their bouquet and character.

The History
Introduced in the 1970s, Hoyo de Monterrey Excalibur quickly made its mark as a super-premium cigar with an appealing price. To name but one of its many admirers, The Robb Report has recognized Excalibur as one of the world's five greatest cigars.
The Cigar
An extremely well constructed medium to full bodied cigar, Hoyo de Monterrey Excalibur is a superb example of Honduran craftsmanship. Lighter in color than a Cuban cigar as a result of its fine Connecticut Shade wrapper, this cedar-aged cigar is made with a rich Honduran blend that is very much in the Cuban tradition.
The Experience
Like the legendary sword that inspired its name, Excalibur is a superbly balanced work of art. |
