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 where it was founded in 1935.
The original Montecristo range of sizes was composed of a narrow assortment numbered from 1 to 5. Today it consists of a wide variety of 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.
Smooth and packed with flavour, excellent draw and burn. Distinguished appearance, bold taste, but a creamy smoke. Quality tobacco in all respect.

"...A slim smoke with a tan wrapper and slightly firm draw. Notes of sweet tea and honey become cedary and tangy with nutty touches of pecan and a slightly salty finish..."
