Montecristo
Classic Cigars

Montecristo is one of the most famous and trusted brands in the cigar world today, and among the most popular is the Montecristo Classic cigars. First manufactured in 1935 Cuba by Alonzo Menendez and Pepe Garcia, this brand is currently manufactured in the Dominican Republic and is now in the skilled hands of Altadis U.S.A., who controls its distribution and marketing in the United States.

This brand was inspired by the adventure novel The Count of Monte Cristo by Alexander Dumas. Back in the day, cigar rollers working in the factory would have literature read to them by lectors to pass the time, and The Count of Monte Cristo was a long-time favorite.

The Montecristo Classic Series is made with the highest-grade Connecticut shade wrappers and the finest blend of Dominican filler and binder tobaccos, these classic mellow-tasting masterpieces have the perfect blend, solid construction, and well-balanced flavors of cedar, nuts, coffee, spice, earth, and subtle sweetness to create an unforgettable smoking experience anyone can enjoy.

Not just a fine cigar, but perhaps the finest Montecristo, these gems are worthy of a spot in any aficionado’s humidor.
