Montecristo is the best-known and probably most appreciated brand of Habanos throughout the world. It forms the benchmark for many Habanos smokers against which other brands are judged.
The name comes from the hero of Alexandre Dumas' famous novel 'The Count of Montecristo,' which was a firm favourite when read by the Lector to the Torcedores (cigar makers) at the factory it was founded in 1935.
The original Montecristo range of sizes comprised a narrow assortment from 1 to 5. Today it consists of various vitolas to cover every level of the cigar enthusiast's needs.
Montecristo's perfectly balanced blends are created exclusively with selected filler and binder leaves from the Vuelta Abajo zone, home of the finest tobaccos in the world.
A timeless classic from Montecristo, this cigar delivers a burst of crackling spices and garden herbs and is a true after-supper companion. Medium to full flavour mellowed by the heavy ring gauge.

"...Slightly tapered at the head, this short robusto imparts a creamy, velvety smoke rich with coffee bean and dark chocolate notes that take on a sweet, marzipan character..."
