Description

Brand Story 

It was in Havana, in 1935, that Alonso Menendez, from a long line of merchants, founded the Montecristo brand in reference to Alexandre Dumas' hero. It seems that the torcedores particularly enjoyed having these adventures read to them while they worked. The Menendez family soon bought the Particulares factory, followed by the H.Upmann factory in 1937. Montecristo's success has never waned, the brand maintaining both tradition and modernity, with the launch of limited and relevant editions. In 2009, a range of milder, more modern cigars, called Open, was launched in Havana.

Product Detail 

The first puffs of the cigar are mild, with pronounced flavours of earth, oak and coffee. As the experience evolves, deep notes of mocha, pepper, blackcurrant, cinnamon, aniseed, espresso beans and vanilla increase in intensity. The cigar's body varies from medium to medium-strong.
