Montecristo

Montecristo Overview

Since 1935, the fame that has followed Montecristo cigars has been surpassed only by the luxurious, refined nature each Montecristo cigar brings to a cigar smoking experience. Rich flavor, smooth character, and complexity come together to make the Montecristo expression worthy of the brand's timeless notoriety.

Founded by Alonso Menendez, the brand is named after The Count of Monte Cristo by Alexandre Dumas. The book is said to have been a favorite of the factory's workers. Montecristo is a fitting name, serving as a teaser to all the grand adventures contained within each cigar's top-shelf blend of aged Vuelta Abajo tobaccos.
