Description
First introduced in the 1970s, Hoyo de Monterrey Excalibur quickly earned a reputation as a high-end cigar that delivers luxury without the excess price tag. Over the years, it has attracted a loyal following and even garnered praise from respected publications like The Robb Report, which has ranked it among the finest cigars in the world.
The Excalibur 1066 brings a bold, full-bodied experience built around a striking combination of tobaccos. A flavorful Cameroon wrapper surrounds a Connecticut Broadleaf binder, while a blend of Honduran, Nicaraguan, and Dominican long-fillers creates a profile rich with depth, subtle sweetness, and refined spice.
Its name pays homage to the legendary sword of King Arthur and the historic Battle of Hastings, reflecting the strength and character found within each cigar. Before its debut, General Cigar invited enthusiasts to weigh in on two potential blends, and the 1066 emerged as the clear favorite, a choice that still resonates with aficionados today.
This cigar stands as a unique expression of craftsmanship, uniting diverse tobaccos into a balanced and memorable smoking experience that continues to hold its place among the classics.
