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 Montecristo Wide Edmundo was announced by Habanos SA in 2021 and joins the Edmundo family, bringing the total number of sizes to four vitolas.
The cigar is dressed in a smooth Colorado-coloured wrapper. The construction is impeccable, with the exception of the draw, which is a little open.
Overall, the Montecristo Wide Edmundo is a well-balanced cigar, with a flavour profile in keeping with the brand. This doesn't apply to the strength you'd expect from a Montecristo; it's surprisingly light.
