Excalibur Cigars

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.

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.

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.
Like the legendary sword that inspired its name, Excalibur is a superbly balanced work of art.

Excalibur 1066
A full-bodied Honduran cigar with a rich Cameroon wrapper and a flavorful Connecticut Broadleaf binder, Excalibur 1066 is named after the legendary sword of King Arthur and the historic Battle of Hastings.

Excalibur 1066 is truly "The people's choice" cigar. We asked cigar enthusiasts to determine which of two blends should be incorporated into our new cigar, and the blend in the Excalibur 1066 was their choice.

Excalibur 1066 is the first cigar that has ever combined the rich Honduran taste with the richness of a Cameroon wrapper. The blend is a combination of Honduran, Nicaraguan and Dominican tobaccos. The character of the cigar is further enhanced by a select Broadleaf binder grown in the Connecticut River Valley.
Excalibur 1066 gives the discriminating smoker the very best of two worlds, rich flavor and Connecticut smoothness.

Excalibur Royal Sterling
In the days of King Arthur, the royal sword Excalibur, made with the finest hand-forged steel and embellished with fine jewels and hand-crafted sterling silver inlays, was know for its exquisite workmanship and quality. The same is true of today's Excalibur Royal Sterling cigars. Made with the finest workmanship and quality in Honduras, these cigars represent an exquisite blend of hand-rolled tobaccos for the finest smoking enjoyment.

Since their beginnings in the 1970s, Hoyo de Monterrey Excalibur cigars have been wrapped in a smooth, light, Connecticut grown, English Claro wrapper which, when wrapped around its robust binder and filler tobaccos, created a perfectly bananced combination of richness and smoothness. Now Excalibur Royal Sterling adds another dimension to this classic blend with a Honduran Claro wrapper. This wrapper tobacco, available only in limited quantities, is grown in Honduras and keeps the traditional smooth Excalibur taste but adds a more robust flavor to the cigar.

Each Excalibur Royal Sterling cigar is crafted by hand with the finest Honduran Claro wrapper tobaccos, these leaves are picked from the lowest primings of the plant to ensure their smooth taste and light color of its English Claro cousin, but with the distinct, robust flavor characteristics of Honduran-grown tobacco. The Excalibur Royal Sterling also boasts a sweet and flavorful Connecticut Broadleaf binder, and Excalibur's traditional, full-flavored Honduran, Nicaraguan and Dominican filler blend.

Like the legendary sword that inspired its name, Excalibur Royal Sterling is a product of the finest, hand-made craftsmanship and special rare tobaccos for the ultimate in smoking enjoyment.
