The Hot Cake is the follow-up to HVC’s Pan Caliente brand. Handmade by Aganorsa Leaf in Nicaragua, the Hot Cake is a fuller bodied blend that sports a toothy Mexican San Andres maduro wrapper placed over a Nicaraguan binder and filler. HVC Cigars was founded by Reineir Lorenzo. It is an acronym for Havana City, which was Lorenzo’s hometown in Cuba.

Cigar Origin
Nicaragua
Most cigars are manufactured in the Caribbean and Central America.
Despite many decades of war and revolution in this Central American country, the cigar industry has thrived due to the hard work and tenacity of Cuban exiles to the land such as Plasencia, Padron, Oliva, Ortez, and others. Tobacco has been a force of social stability, and the country is now one of the principal exporters of premium cigars in the world.
Strength

Medium
Wrapper Color
Maduro
Cigar wrapper color varies from green (Double Claro or Candela) to black (Maduro or Oscuro) with a full range of browns in between.
Maduro wrapper can go from dark coffee brown with a reddish tint to blackish brown (the latter also called Oscuro).
Wrapper
Mexican San Andres Maduro
The wrapper is the last tobacco leaf to be rolled on the cigar, so it is the one the smoker will see.
Mexican tobacco is very dark and the best leaves can be used as maduro wrappers. San Andres Maduro is a thick, medium bodied dark leaf, also called San Andres Morron. Like Connecticut Broadleaf, San Andres Maduro is stalk cut and used for binder and wrapper.
Binder
Nicaraguan Corojo
The binder is a full tobacco leaf that is used to roll the cigar, binding the filler tobaccos together.
Nicaraguan Corojo ’99 tobacco was first used as a wrapper in Cuba during the late 20th Century. It was then grown in Ecuador and eventually in Nicaragua. Primarily, it is used as a wrapper, but it is also used as a binder. It is regarded for its spiciness.
Filler
Nicaraguan Corojo
Filler is the term used to describe the tobacco inside a cigar or the "guts" of the cigar.
Rolled by
Handmade
Handmade cigars are completely made by hand from start to finish.
Manufacturer
Aganorsa
Aganorsa Leaf (formerly known as Casa Fernandez) is one of Central America's largest tobacco growers. Their factory, Tabacalera Tropical, is located in Esteli, Nicaragua and employs hundreds of cigar rollers.

Nice spicy short for the winter

ROBERT M.08/16/2025About: HVC Hot Cake Gran Canon 6 " * 60

What's better than an HVC Hot Cake? A 6x60 cannon of HVC Hot Cake! Easy draw, earthy flavour, nearly perfect. A staple in my humidor. Smoke with confidence.

yuki t.07/01/2025About: HVC Hot Cake Half Corona 3"1/2 * 44

Wonderful. The chili and peppery notes are truly addictive.

William L.06/08/2025About: HVC Hot Cake Laguito No. 4 4"1/2 * 52

Right from the light, the cigar wastes no time. There’s a bold mix of baker’s chocolate, caramel, and warm spice, nutmeg and cinnamon dancing upfront, with a soft undercurrent of plum-like stone fruit rounding off each puff. The retrohale ? A sharp, electrifying snap of black pepper, cutting through with intensity and clearing the senses. An inch in, the experience begins to shift. A silky creaminess rises to the surface, mellowing the sharper edges and deepening the body. Roasted almonds appear quietly, adding a toasted richness that feels both comforting and indulgent. The draw leans snug but never struggles—each pull delivers full, textured smoke. The burn line wavers slightly, but it’s steady, confident. Midway through, the cigar leans into itself. Earth and cedar come forward, giving the profile a more grounded feel. The creamy texture intensifies, binding together the spice, sweetness, and fruit into something smoother, more complete. The pepper on the retrohale backs off, no longer demanding attention—just whispering its presence in the background. Then, in the final stretch, everything changes. The sweetness that had carried the cigar so far suddenly fades, replaced by a surge of charred wood. It’s smoky, bold—reminiscent of burnt marshmallows at a campfire. Surprising, yes, but oddly fitting. A nostalgic, slightly wild finish that contrasts beautifully with the polished beginning.

Felix G.05/26/2025About: HVC Hot Cake Corona Gorda 5"5/8 * 46

great cigar

Damon R.05/15/2025About: HVC Hot Cake Laguito No. 4 4"1/2 * 52

Good budget cigar. Has a slightly sweet taste with a chocolate flavor and medium body.

Alex C.03/18/2025About: HVC Hot Cake Corona Gorda 5"5/8 * 46

Never fails

Spencer S.03/17/2025About: HVC Hot Cake Corona Gorda 5"5/8 * 46

Good, definitely give it a try

Eric D.03/10/2025About: HVC Hot Cake Laguito No. 4 4"1/2 * 52

Its a okay cigar to me. Too much sharp pepper. Very little to no chocolate or caramel flavors at all. Just a lot of pepper, oak and minimal dusty cocoa. Just buy a MF JG for the price. Better in every category.

ROBERT M.03/12/2025About: HVC Hot Cake Corona Gorda 5"5/8 * 46

I'm all in on the Hot Cake. Amazing size--great draw, razor sharp burn. A deep medium-leaning-to-full bodied smoke with earth and coffee notes. Probably my favourite offering by HTC.

Marc G.11/15/2024About: HVC Hot Cake Laguito No. 5 6" * 54

Unfortunately received a damaged stick but Neptune did right thing and refunded. Appreciate Neptune and will try in future

Joe C.11/08/2024About: HVC Hot Cake Laguito No. 5 6" * 54

Lots of nice rich and spicy flavors. Maple and cocoa sweetness. Full body. Medium-long finish. Looking forward to the next one.

Scott G.11/02/2024About: HVC Hot Cake Laguito No. 4 4"1/2 * 52

Good little cigar. Kind of plain, but the aroma was good as was the taste. This burned longer than I was expecting. Would buy again.

Jorge G.09/04/2024About: HVC Hot Cake Laguito No. 5 6" * 54

Great stick

Edward S.08/16/2024About: HVC Hot Cake Laguito No. 4 4"1/2 * 52

Let me just begin by saying that my wife hates all cigar aroma BUT this! this is a cigar that everytime i lit up she's like: "you should stick to those cigars" but the flavor is amazing, it always burns even and it wont go out easily even if you're outdoors, one of my top 3 cigars in my book.

Miguel E.06/03/2024About: HVC Hot Cake Half Corona 3"1/2 * 44

A half corona that will give you the nicotine kick of a Churchill. Lost of paper lingers in the palate, the caramel in nowhere to be found, full strength that hits you from the start but mellows after the first third to reveal better flavors after that. Not for the faint hearted but rewarding of you estoy full strength. Lots of Character for such a small cigar.

Tigran J.05/22/2024About: HVC Hot Cake Corona Gorda 5"5/8 * 46

Not the prettiest cigar but definitely a very tasty one. Good balance of sweet and savory, not too heavy very enjoyable in the corona Gorda size

Brad D.05/06/2024About: HVC Hot Cake Corona Gorda 5"5/8 * 46

Fantastic cigars , however it seems like the factory is having issues with the amount of cigar glue they used to patch up the 2 cigars I had .

Robert B.04/28/2024About: HVC Hot Cake Gran Canon 6 " * 60

Nothing close to the same taste as the smaller sizes. It has very low flavor, for me a factory smoke has more flavor. Definitely look at smaller sizes for the flavor. And the burn was all over the place. I really wanted to like this one.

Robert B.04/28/2024About: HVC Hot Cake Corona Gorda 5"5/8 * 46

Nice flavor. Nice cigar with coffee.

Gavin P.04/07/2024About: HVC Hot Cake Laguito No. 4 4"1/2 * 52

I've loved the handful of corona gorda Hot Cakes I've had, but this wider vitola cam across as dead, flat, and frumpy for me. "Cheap old man cigar" sounds about right in aroma and flavor. Nothing wrong with appearance or burn. Draw a little tight with a v-cut. Can do much better for the price.

Matthew S.03/30/2024About: HVC Hot Cake Corona Gorda 5"5/8 * 46

Lovely all-around!

allan w.03/23/2024About: HVC Hot Cake Corona Gorda 5"5/8 * 46

Meh gardening cigar. DTT umbagog or polpetta much better option

Gavin P.02/22/2024About: HVC Hot Cake Corona Gorda 5"5/8 * 46

Maybe I've gotten lucky, but the burn and draw on the Hot Cakes I've had has always been so perfect that I usually have a glamorous 3.5" ash dangling from the end around the halfway mark. Flavor is sweet, breakfasty, with copious cinnamon, honey, maple sugar, toasted nuts, and pepper, with a smooth and agreeable consistency. The name Hot Cakes appears spot-on. For devotees of the Mexican San Andres wrapper, and I am certainly one, this stick delivers, but in a new way that I found quite novel. The slightly lighter color of the maduro wrapper, while still falling solidly into the "dark" category, seems to have a lot of character, allowing high notes to come through as well as deep sweet tones, and landing so beautifully that I'm amazed this stick isn't twice the price, though I'll gladly accept. Excellent cigar.

Marc L.02/22/2024About: HVC Hot Cake Gran Canon 6 " * 60

What a surprising beautiful cigar and smoke. Everything is perfect about it, with taste being on the milder side and the physical mouth feel being 'hard'. That said: a new favorite.

JAO S.02/08/2024About: HVC Hot Cake Laguito No. 5 6" * 54

Nice rich flavor cigar.

joe w.10/31/2023About: HVC Hot Cake Corona Gorda 5"5/8 * 46

Not for me

Ivon09/29/2023About: HVC Hot Cake Laguito No. 5 6" * 54

From beginning to end a very smooth very flavorful, medium strength, balanced complex cigar with enough transitions to keep it interesting. I particularly enjoyed the long finish after every puff.

Stephen L.09/07/2023About: HVC Hot Cake Laguito No. 4 4"1/2 * 52

9.1/10 Fantastic draw, burn and smoke output. Combination of chocolate and spice. Loved the size. Very good cigar.

Dewayne L.07/07/2023About: HVC Hot Cake Laguito No. 5 6" * 54

Nice cigar. Underrated. Not very glitz or glamor but box worthy.

Ronald C.05/01/2023About: HVC Hot Cake Gran Canon 6 " * 60

bold stout smoke

Angel G.04/24/2023About: HVC Hot Cake Corona Gorda 5"5/8 * 46

This potent but not overwhelming blend offers up sweet notes of chocolate and caramel with a touch of spice and a very peppery retro hale.

Dean A.04/08/2023About: HVC Hot Cake Laguito No. 4 4"1/2 * 52

Spicy to start with a stiff draw, mellowed out in the second third, creamy almond, and then like a weird charred merengue in the last third.

Colin D.04/03/2023About: HVC Hot Cake Laguito No. 4 4"1/2 * 52

Very excellent cigar

Kyle G.03/18/2023About: HVC Hot Cake Corona Gorda 5"5/8 * 46

More of a medium-full. Great blend

Daniel L.03/13/2023About: HVC Hot Cake Corona Gorda 5"5/8 * 46

These Hot Cakes are sensational! Full of flavor and strength that never leaves me guessing. Love the toasty, nutty, cedary flavor profile! Once in a while I get one with a tight draw, but that's easy enough to fix with my PerfectDraw cigar poker. These are always a staple in my cigar cellar.

Marc J.01/02/2023About: HVC Hot Cake Laguito No. 5 6" * 54

The Hot Cake is a certified banger. Good construction, excellent flavors. Highly, recommend.

Mark L.12/12/2022About: HVC Hot Cake Laguito No. 5 6" * 54

Prefer the toro of this size.

Stephen G.11/10/2022About: HVC Hot Cake Laguito No. 4 4"1/2 * 52

One of my favorite Cigars and a great value

Alexander G.10/24/2022About: HVC Hot Cake Corona Gorda 5"5/8 * 46

Rich, dark taste that paired well with coffee. Draw was tight on the first one I tried but my second was much better after about a month resting in the humidor. Medium in strength and a short finish which I enjoy.

Mike C.09/28/2022About: HVC Hot Cake Laguito No. 5 6" * 54

Good tasting cigar. Ive had issues with the shorter one burn and draw. This size starts a bit tough but works itself out as you get into it.

Luis S.09/16/2022About: HVC Hot Cake Gran Canon 6 " * 60

Glad to choose this cigar. Great presentation and right on all points

Robert D.08/14/2022About: HVC Hot Cake Corona Gorda 5"5/8 * 46

Deep flavors of chocolate and earth accompanied by spice and cinnamon. Good balance of sweet and spicy. Not overly complex but very consistently tasty. Construction was overall great on my sample. Definitely worth a shot.

Mike C.07/18/2022About: HVC Hot Cake Laguito No. 4 4"1/2 * 52

I thought Id try this one and glad I did. The draw can be funny at first a bit tight but seems to work itself out every time.Perfect burn. This cigar tastes great and perfect amount of spice.

Tuan C.07/14/2022About: HVC Hot Cake Laguito No. 5 6" * 54

Pair it with Baileys cream, you'll understand why it's called Hot Cake.

Frédéric L.06/28/2022About: HVC Hot Cake Corona Gorda 5"5/8 * 46

Thank you HVC for making such delicious cigars! Really tasty and well balanced. There's no big transitions in the aromas but it's very well made. Plus, the price is correct.

Jeremy H.06/12/2022About: HVC Hot Cake Laguito No. 4 4"1/2 * 52

This was a tasty little cigar that performed nice. Medium and creamy while leathery and peppery at same time. Excellent draw and nice burn with only a couple minor touch ups. Lasted over an hour and I smoked it down to the singed fingertips and it never got bitter. Excellent little cigar.

Dave S.06/01/2022About: HVC Hot Cake Laguito No. 4 4"1/2 * 52

Tasty

Ivon05/07/2022About: HVC Hot Cake Corona Gorda 5"5/8 * 46

Another home run by HVC. The draw was a little snug (I fixed it with perfect draw tool). This is an hour and a half of very enjoyable experience. Bold flavors, medium strength, complex, many transitions. Cocoa, espresso, creamy, smooth ... my new favorite.

Ivon04/21/2022About: HVC Hot Cake Laguito No. 4 4"1/2 * 52

One of the best cigar I have smoked this year. Good construction, Nice flavors, complex, many transitions, balanced, on the + side of peppery but manageable, very smooth and creamy smoke. Extremely good value. I would buy a box without a second thought.

Junior S.03/06/2022About: HVC Hot Cake Corona Gorda 5"5/8 * 46

Dark flavors, burn and construction is hit and miss. Most times they smoke perfectly, other times they need a touch up or 4.

Pretty good, really gets good after the first third though, if they first was a little better it would a score higher. Won’t stop me from buying more though

Roy K.12/06/2021About: HVC Hot Cake Corona Gorda 5"5/8 * 46

A lot of pepper taste, not even a hint of chocolate or caramel flavor. Very disappointed.

Oh man...this is a keeper. I paired this with some strong Vietnamese hot coffee. Damn, what a smoke. Start to finish the burn, draw and taste was on point. A bit creamy and lightly sweet with milk chocolate in the background. I really didn't want this one to end. Outstanding. I will buy this again.

Jon C.07/04/2021About: HVC Hot Cake Corona Gorda 5"5/8 * 46

Great flavor and it burned ok but the draw was very tight on both cigars. I'd like to try this in a different size.

Delicious. Good smoke.

Francis L.06/22/2021About: HVC Hot Cake Corona Gorda 5"5/8 * 46

Super dank and bold maduro. Beautiful sweet retrohale. Best vitola of the line in my opinion.

Alphonso B.06/20/2021About: HVC Hot Cake Laguito No. 4 4"1/2 * 52

Expected more flavors based off what I heard from others. But it was solid.

Morimitsu F.06/08/2021About: HVC Hot Cake Corona Gorda 5"5/8 * 46

Very good, only one disappointment is the draw, but the cigar tool solves the problem. I would order it again.

Michael B.06/06/2021About: HVC Hot Cake Corona Gorda 5"5/8 * 46

Not much aroma off of foot or wrapper. Wrapper has a slightly uneven and rustic look to it. Draw was prefect. Flavor notes are salted deep dark chocolate with slight hint of sweetness to it. Burned great, highly recommend this one!

Francis L.05/31/2021About: HVC Hot Cake Laguito No. 4 4"1/2 * 52

Came back for more. New to the size. Great smoke and smoke time for its size.

Mostly good; a dry earth and peppery medium-bodied cigar.

Delicious spice bomb!

Very smooth filling smoke. Draw is tight V-CUT is recommended.The aromas are great sweet retro for me. Cocoa fills the mouth sweet earth. Burn was off a bit it was 55 or so last bit breezy and had to relight twice. Very tight roll did not affect the smoke output. Definitely will stock up for summer evenings.

Reineir Lorenzo moved from Cuba and his life changed when his family introduced him to Eduardo Fernandez of Aganorsa Leaf. In 2011 HVC was born and they have been producing some very unique boutique cigars!! The Hot Cake is one of the newer creations. It has a gorgeous dark San Andres wrapper, Corojo 99 binder and Criollo 98/Corojo 2006 fillers. With a name as strong as Hot Cake it has to look delicious and bold -- and it sure does. Let's see if it lives up to its name.... Upon first light, cinnamon notes and a bit of fruitiness joined by dark chocolate are upfront, followed by a very peppery retrohale. About an inch into the smoke, a sweet creaminess takes action along with some nuttiness playing a role. My only issue at this point ( not even a big issue ) is the draw is a bit tight for my liking. Into the second third, earthy and cedar notes pop up. The creaminess and sweetness also amps up in intensity making a very balanced smooth and sweet experience. The pepper is still there on the retrohale but has calmed down immensely. Into the final third, the sweetness begins to disappear, and charred notes (which I love) enter into the scene. It reminds me of burnt toast or burnt marshmallows! I will say it was a very surprising change but a very nice one! This was an enjoyable smoking experience--the flavors work very well with each other--nice complexity and transitions. The draw, as I stated earlier, was a bit tight but did not cause any problems. The burn line and ash were perfect. I would highly recommend this cigar. Enjoy!

Francisco T.03/09/2021About: HVC Hot Cake Corona Gorda 5"5/8 * 46

Slightly sweet with some pepper on the retrohale,.

Alejandro M.03/09/2021About: HVC Hot Cake Laguito No. 5 6" * 54

Great cigar!

Mori D.03/08/2021About: HVC Hot Cake Laguito No. 5 6" * 54

I was looking forward to this but was disappointed. Very average cigar and not worth trying again.

Jaime V.03/05/2021About: HVC Hot Cake Laguito No. 5 6" * 54

Box worthy?, maybe.

Chris M.03/04/2021About: HVC Hot Cake Laguito No. 5 6" * 54

This blend shines most notably in this toro version. Everything is on point. Great draw, smooth flavor, rich aromatics and good smoke output. For sure try it!

Chris M.03/02/2021About: HVC Hot Cake Corona Gorda 5"5/8 * 46

A very dark flavored cigar. Loads of black coffee and pepper and extra dark chocolate. A bit too snug on the draw. I would smoke another but am not running to buy a box. It has a nice amount of strength.
