MONTECRISTO

Montecristo is the best known and probably the most appreciated brand of Havanas throughout the world. It forms the benchmark for many Havana smokers against which other brands are judged.

The name comes from Alexandre Dumas’ famous novel ‘The Count of Montecristo’, which was a firm favourite when read to the Torcedores (cigar rollers) 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.

Whether it is within the classic medium-to-full line, the lighter Open Series or the newer, more powerful, Linea 1935, Montecristo’s perfectly balanced blends are all created exclusively with selected filler and binder leaves from the Vuelta Abajo zone, home of the finest tobaccos in the world.

LINEA 1935 LEYENDA

Dressed with a second band denoting the size name and a unique third protecting the foot of the cigar. Each cigar offers a rich blend of signature Montecristo flavours and full bodied aromas making the 1935 series a new unique way to enjoy the most popular premium cigar brand in the world.

The Linea 1935 range are ‘Totalmente a mano con Tripa Larga (Totally by Hand with Long Filler), using the finest wrapper, filler and binder leaves from the Vuelta Abajo zone.
