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.

The Montecristo No.1 is the largest cigar in the Montecristo numbered series. It is known by many aficionados for its popularity and pleasant draw.
This handcrafted Cuban cigar is rolled in this exceptional Cervantes vitola, which measures 165 mm in length and has a 42-ring gauge.
It offers a fantastic smoke full of complex flavors - it starts with bolder tones and mellows into a creamy cigar. How can you resist adding this renowned cigar to your collection?
