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. 

Tasting Notes

This is a rich and flavourful cigar and it burns very well. A bomb of rich spices including cinnamon and a pleasant sweetness emerges throughout the cigar. A great Havana among fine gauges.

92 / 100

"...The complex smoke of this torpedo offers an elegant interplay of almond and orange peel notes that frame a leathery, woody core..."

Montecristo No.2 is perhaps the finest cigar available a true classic. I often buy a box when funds allow and always have some aging in the humidor. An aged Montecristo No. 2 is a real treat, its a giant in stature and quality. Its a complex cigar with full bodied strength, subtlety, and complexity. It has notes of strong coffee with spicey cinnamon, nutmeg, almond, cream, leather and coconut. I wish I could smoke these every day but given the price, theyre a special occasion smoke and a real treat.

The wrapper on this cigar is simply gorgeous. Theres a wonderfully oily sheen to this well constructed smoke. It burns and draws well, with medium- to full-bodied flavors of chocolate, vanilla, coffee and cocoa bean. A truely delightful cigar! written by Michael

Ahhhh, now that`s what I call a great smoke. ;-)))) Still is, I`m writing this with the last two inches to go. ;-))) An extremely well made, highly complex and very satisfying stogie which is "interesting" from the moment you light it to the moment it lights your nostril hair after you`ve smoked it down to the nub. (The flavour goes off a bit at that point but I digress. ;-)) ) If you want a full bodied and full flavoured cigar which grabs your attention like the Boston Strangler, this, fellas, is the one to go for. Last third reminds me of a Cuaba with a bit more oomph - oh, forget the cost, price schmice - this is what cigars are all about. Your nicotene receptors will love you. If you get hooked on these, the bank manager will kill you, but a great way to die happy. Hats off to Mr Monte Cristo. ;-))))) 5/5. written by Dave Francis

Occasionally inconsistent, but when I get a good one it reminds me of why I smoke cigars. Medium bodied, extraordinarily complex with a wonderful floral aroma. The aroma is so incredible that I often find myself inhaling my exhaled smoke through my nose. Nearly flawless construction...the ash holds on forever and the burn is solid. Flavor bomb. written by The Mantis
