Montecristo No.3 – 1’s

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

The name comes from the hero of Alexandre Dumas’ famous novel ‘The Count of Montecristo,’ which was a firm favourite when read by the Lector to the Torcedores (cigar makers) at the factory it was founded in 1935.

The original Montecristo range of sizes comprised a narrow assortment from 1 to 5. Today it consists of various vitolas to cover every level of the cigar enthusiast’s needs.

Montecristo’s perfectly balanced blends are created exclusively with selected filler and binder leaves from the Vuelta Abajo zone, home of the finest tobaccos in the world.

Tasting Notes

A mild bitter cocoa and spicy taste, great aroma. Nice, even burn, consistently good quality. A Havana that will never let you down.
