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. 

Please note: Matches not included. 

Tasting Notes

A true icon in the world of great Havana cigars. This Mareva expresses the crisp and spicy flavours that we associate so much with Montecristo, it is ideal with an espresso in the afternoon.

90 / 100

"...Though rustic in appearance, this corona has a dead-even burn and lush draw. It's floral and salty with earthy elements and sweeter touches of cocoa powder..."

A great small smoke. Perfect if you want a fantastic cigar but you only have half an hour to smoke it. Medium-bodied and not incredibly complex probably due to its small ring gauge. But its probably the best example of this size made in Havana. Chocolaty and leathery and always consistent. written by The Mantis

A full-bodied, deep, rich almost power-house of a cigar. So much packed into a smaller size. Best enjoyed with a Cabernet or Port or dark beer, possbily bourbon. Best of all, it lasts nearly an hour. Must age well to enjoy all this cigar has to offer and make need to work or poke a bit to ease the often tight roll. I think of this as the flavor and depth that Fuente went after when creating the Opus X. If you like the Opus X, do try one of these. written by Ashton NH

I bought a couple of these and managed to refrain from smoking the first, choosing instead to lay it down in my humi for over a week. After lighting the cigar the initial taste was quite mild and creamy and I thought I was going to enjoy a fine cigar. Unfortunately after about 5 mins the taste became quite harsh and unpleasing. This lasted until about half way through the smoke when a surprising nice chocolate and coffee taste started to come through, however this was short lived and lasted for about 15mins. The rest of the cigar was again rather harsh an unpleasant and so I put it out earlier than I would have normally liked. This cigar had a number of burn problems and had to re-light it 5 -6 times which without doubt affected the taste due to its obvious construction problems. The 2nd was smoked a week later. This was much better and a completely different cigar it burned well was quite mild there was mild hints of coffee and a odd hint of spice but this smoke was not very complex. written by Mr
