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..."

Purchased this for myself (alongside some Guantanameras) to smoke at my recent wedding. Was not disappointed, flavour was amazing, smoke was smooth. My only regret is that I could not take longer to enjoy (trying to spread myself around all guests was a task and a half). I will definitely be buying again. Though I am no aficionado on the subject, as a novice, this was the perfect cigar for me. Thank you CGars cannot wait to place another order with yourselves very soon.

Pre pre-deployment weekend. Left the family to stay in a b&b before going back to base. All about me, nothing else. Been saving this bad boy in my humidor for a while(can't remember how long) And after a very nice three course dinner I decided to pick this Habana up. As always I've brought my own ashtray, and I've found a nice quiet part outside. And I'm now ready. Never been much for the pre-light procedure as such, as long as I got my ashtray I'm happy. So cut and light it was, and after that, pure magic!!! The light it self so smooth, the draw was absolutely fantastic and flavours everything you'd expect from a top draw Habana. Could ramble on about chocolate etc. But instead I'm gonna say, well balanced, surprising and absolutely amazing!

This cigar is the best I've ever smoked! Had it in my humidor for 13 months and broke it out last week at a bbq. Great cool smoke throughout, burnt perfect, cant fault it at all. Love it 100% gotta get some more for the humidor

Well now I can see what all the fuss is about, this cigar is simply gorgeous. On clipping I thought it was going to be very tight as the cigar was densely packed however this had the easiest draw I have found so far. The burn was nice and even and the spice starts to build after the first third. Strong ash and a very slow burn meant it took me 1 hour to get down to the nub. The final 3rd has a full flaovur without being harsh. I really was sorry to see the end of this one and will definitely be smoking more of these.
