New WorldEverydayHoyo de Monterrey Excalibur No. III
A right-sized Honduran Excalibur — a 6.1 x 48 corona gorda offering the line's smooth, creamy character in an hour-long everyday format.
The Excalibur No. III rounds out the core of Hoyo de Monterrey's Honduran Excalibur range at 6.1 x 48 — a corona gorda that many smokers consider the sweet spot of the line. Same golden Connecticut Shade wrapper, same aged Honduran-Nicaraguan-Dominican blend, in a balanced everyday size.
What it tastes like
It's pure Excalibur: smooth, creamy cedar with nuts, coffee, and a little earth and spice, all polished by cedar aging. The medium body and refined, long finish make it easy to enjoy without demanding much, and construction is reliably good. Figure about an hour of relaxed smoking.
Who it's for
An ideal everyday Honduran and a friendly stepping stone for anyone exploring premium non-Cuban cigars. Keep in mind this is the Honduran Hoyo, not the Cuban brand. Want the full-length version? Reach for the Excalibur No. I. Curious how regional styles differ? See Cuban vs Nicaraguan.
