Hoyo de Monterrey is my go-to cigar brand - the number 4 is always my first choice but I decided to try the Epicure Especial and was highly impressed with the taste and overall draw of the cigar. I will definitely be buying this one again!

Excellent smoke

Great

Great

Best creamy, softness and savory flavor

Cigars came in good condition looks like they were properly humidified so I put them in the humidor to rest plus lately most of the cigars from Cuba relict early do to the big demand so they need to lay in the humidor for a while, after several weeks I tried to smoke mine cigars the flavor was what I expected from Hoyo’s one of my favorite cigars. Very pleased with this site. Cigars are first quality and delivery was very fast. Thank you CCG Cuban for good service. Best regards Len.

One of my favorite Cubans!

Burn is great taste is good

Cigars were perfect and customer service was very good!

Hoyo's are our favorites. Always keep plenty on hand to share with friends.

Beautiful robust extra smooth flavoursome cigar a nice conisour smoke

Great value for the money. Smooth and flavorful. Tend to canoe a bit and generally not the highest quality.

If someone would have taken the label off, I would have thought it was a Cohiba. I ordered two boxes, one for my boss who’s retiring and one for myself. We both agree that this was smooth, yet complex. Not overpowering, but definitely grabs your attention. Why is it that great cigars seem to not last as long? The HDM Epicure Especial is one of those.

Um charuto maravilhoso. Já fumei muitos cubanos mas este é um dos meus favoritos. O serviço da CCG sempre pontual na entrega. Tudo ok.

Very well packaged. Very fine tobacco.

great as always

CCG comes through as always. Thanks guys! Perfect.

Arrived well wrapped
good quality
thank you

excellent taste and draw

Always great cigar

Terrific cigar!!!!

Great cigar and great service. TY

Smoked it after a short resting period and I felt it needed more time to blend,mellow,and develope the delicious notes that this marca is known for.

Perhaps I got into them too soon. There were many that were rolled too tight. As time went on however the cigars drew better.......that's the only reason I haven't given 5 stars.

I've ordered these several times. Nice, easy smoke. I'm relatively new to cigar smoking (2 years) and these are just right for me. Fruit with leather is how I find it.

An inconsistent roll. Done correctly, a full-flavored, satisfying smoke. Rolled too tight (which is too often the case), draw-through is enough of an effort to induce a hernia, and the result is thin and weak.

Dependable timely shipping, my sticks are still resting in humidor for a few more months to age. Will update at after first smoke.

CCG always comes through with customer service and satisfaction.

Arrived wonderful, great smoke !!

Cigars arrived in excellent condition. Took longer than I expected, but was the post office delay. Next time I will upgrade shipping. Very pleased.

Good flavor and great price. I will order again.

TIMELY AND ALL IN ORDER!

To start with FFC is a fantastic company, exttemely reliable in its delivery and reputation. The cigar purchased this time is a little disappointing as this is a ver young smoke which I may have to have it in my humidor for the settlement before I can enjoy it fully, however this is not probglem as I love the process of waiting and seeing my cigars change. the real issue I had is that the box I purchased is seemingly rolled by an inexperienced roller as two cigars I smoked is either very difficult to draw or doesn't burn right. I personally hate keeping cutting and lighting my cigar while smoking. Well a little unlucky but love FFC.

The cigars arrived well-packaged and humidified after a ten-day wait. Pre-draw offered raisins, dates and Christmas cake, a sure sign of what came later. This a mild to mid- range smoke, flavorful , well-constructed with no visible veins or other defects. The burn was good, but one must take extra care in lighting it to ensure an even burn.. Ash was uniform white and grey and held on halfway. First third was mild, sweet, with some pepper, but never harsh. Second third was creamy with hints of chocolate and cedar. Final third was best, with more complex notes of coffee, cedar, and leather.
This was a thoroughly enjoyable smoke and I am most thankful to Cuban Cigar Group for every bit of this fine specimen of a Habano!

Delivery, packaging was right on and the cigar has exceeded my expectations as a great smoking experience. Thank you for doing it right.

I am so happy I discovered this site. Everything has been great and I will continue to make my purchases from here

My cigars arrived in perfect condition had a little trouble with the postage going to the wrong place but that wasn’t FFC’s fault they did they’re job perfectly. ✌🏻

First off, I love the Epicure blend and always have boxes of #1s and #2s on hand. So, adding the Especial is no shocker for me. Typical Hoyo flavors and strength just in a slightly longer format makes this Especial a good third option when I am craving for an Epicure. Only thing that would make it better is if CCG vacuum-sealed their shipments.

Arrived in expected great condition. Smokes well, one of my favorite.

The service was great the shipping was okay. The bag that they sent the cigars in had a mildewed smell and the cigar picked up on that. I had to age it a couple of weeks in the humidor to fix it. I have had the epicure no.2, so my expectations were set to that level. The especial didn't have the greatest of flavor. I will stick with other cigars going forward.

First of all delivery in Europe in less than 10 days.
Second excellent smoke that definitely will become better in a couple of years if properly stored.
Third product is authentic.

All 6 cigar brands ordered were in excellent shape. Over humidified as they should be for such shipping. After 3 to 4 week in a humidor most of them were ready. In my opinion all were authentic and very enjoyable. Awaiting my second order now.

Good smoke, burns even, white ash..secure, fast delivery

Good service. Will buy again.

One of the best cigars I ever had.....Pleasently surprised,really liked it will be getting them again!!

Order came in quickly. The price was fair and the sticks were good quality. Love Hoyo de Monterrey!

I know everyone loves Cohiba's but to each his own. These to me are absolute perfection and CFC delivered to perfection in less than 10 days to the US. Thank you!!!!

Shop again and again!

Cigars arrived within a week, were a little over humidified but smoked very well after an afternoon out of the box. Lovely creamy cigars. It would be nice to see a Boveda pack in the sealed box because cold temperatures in transit result in over humidification and if the package is delayed, I'd worry about mold. Or maybe I'm just paranoid.

Good

I received cigars and they were fine

To piggy back on others comments this stick starts out earthy which is not my thing but about midway through is where I fall in love! You must try this stick! Very good!

One of my favorites. Frisky but not overpowering. A consistent draw and burn. It starts with light spice and an earthiness that is delicious with plenty of smoke. The smoke becomes richer and more complex in the second third and these pleasures last longer than anticipated. A delight that makes me beg for more.
