The Montecristo Especial – Single Cigar embodies the grace and sophistication of Cuba’s golden era, delivering a refined smoking experience that is as elegant as it is memorable. Slender and stylish, this cigar features the signature twisted pigtail cap, a hallmark of artisanal craftsmanship that sets it apart as one of Montecristo’s most distinguished creations.

Handmade in Cuba using long filler tobaccos from the world-renowned Vuelta Abajo region, the Especial offers a medium to full-bodied profile that captures Montecristo’s classic balance of strength and finesse. Expect rich, evolving flavours of cedar, leather, and spice, underscored by earthy tones and a subtle, lingering sweetness that deepens throughout the smoke.

Despite its slim format, the Especial delivers a long, luxurious experience with an even burn and impeccable draw. It’s a cigar for the discerning smoker — elegant in presentation, complex in flavour, and deeply satisfying in every puff.

A cigar of cinematic renown, the Montecristo Especial was famously featured in Live and Let Die, where Roger Moore’s James Bond smoked it with effortless sophistication — cementing its place as an icon of style and Cuban tradition.

Presented individually, the Montecristo Especial is perfect for gifting, celebrating, or savouring on special occasions when only a true Havana classic will do.
