This cigar follows the trend of short cigars with a bigger ring gauge, resulting in the biggest from the Le Hoyo Series (bigger and shorter than the Hoyo de San Juan). This vitola, called a Aromosos, like the other cigars of Robusto Extras format allow the cigars to express all their flavors and complexity, while delivering a smooth smoking experience. Wrapped in a clean and elegant band encased in slide top wooden boxes.

The Río Seco represents a modern way to experience Cuban cigars—one that allows for more tobacco and, ideally, more expression of Cuba’s terroir. This Río Seco delivers flavours of cinnamon, nutmeg, and oak with nuances of caramel.
