Hoyo de Monterrey Petit Robusto Cigar - Cabinet of 25

Date Added: Friday 19 September, 2025 by Harrison

I recently smoked a Hoyo de Monterrey Petit Robusto, and I have to say it really surprised me. Even though it’s a smaller cigar, it feels like a complete experience from start to finish. From the first light, I got this smooth creaminess with a little cedar in the background, very easygoing and classic Cuban in style. As it burned, the flavours stayed light but interesting some floral notes, a touch of nuttiness, and just a little spice here and there. Nothing ever got too strong or harsh, which made it a very relaxing smoke. The draw was spot on and the burn stayed even the whole way through, no touch-ups needed. What I like most is how versatile it is. With it being a mild cigar, I could see enjoying it with a morning coffee just as easily as after dinner. It’s not the longest smoke, but it doesn’t feel rushed either. Overall, the Hoyo de Monterrey Petit Robusto is one of those cigars that proves size doesn’t always matter it’s smooth, classy, and consistently enjoyable. I’d definitely reach for it again when I want something refined but not heavy.

Mine was dry and the wrapper started to come apart in the second third. Was extremely tight therefore very hard to get a good enough draw. Not much enough of a taste for my liking.

Last pack of three I bought contained two that the draw was so tight, they were unsmokeable. A nice smoke when you get a good one but it’s an expensive gamble. Will look for alternatives in future.

Loved it, very light smoke. Creamy and nutty flavours in the first and second third and transitioned to a slight spicy, peppery flavour in the final third. The only reason it isnt a 5 star is bevause I had to relight a few times, had a bit of tunnelling and a bit of an uneven burn. This could be user error as I am new to this.

Loved the taste, very light and easy smoke but the construction was very disappointing, wrapper unravelled from shoulder to foot and ash looked shapeless near the end. It was my first HDM and I will try this short robusto again just to see if I would consider a box of it. Next in line to try is epicure especial. Wanted to knock only 1 star out for the wrapper issue but that wouldnt justify it.

A very pleasant-tasting cigar. It does not have a bitter aftertaste or a peppery aftertaste which is an advantage for me. Delicate, creamy in taste, it burns pleasantly until the very end. Good draft and lots of smoke. I recommend
