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

A mild bitter cocoa and spicy taste, great aroma. Nice, even burn, consistently good quality. A Havana that will never let you down.

90 / 100

"...Though firm at first, the draw of this corona eventually opens up, imparting a smoke that begins dry and hoppy but warms to show nutmeg, clove and orange peel. A chocolate note emerges as well..."

Enjoyed this cigar very much. Lovely dark oily wrapper and great draw. Flavours very pleasant with a touch of sweetness, will be buying again

Very disappointed, wrapper began to unwind very quickly after lighting, cigar tasted great but spent most of the time wondering if it was going to completely fall apart.

Very poor. Wrapper split after the first third and the cigar began to expand as I smoked it down. After the second third the wrapper almost entirely fell off held only by the cap.

Good draw with a bit of resistance. Starts off spicy / peppery. This then settles into a creamy like flavour with notes of mainly vanilla and cocae.

Genuinely one of the most pleasent cigars around. Sweet but not overly so, slight spicy hints and a mild fruity taste (raisin) is constant throughout/ Creamy and smooth and lasts for 40min/1hr. Packed full of flavour and always very well constructed , you will enjoy these.
