Montecristo No.1

Montecristo No.1

Montecristo No. 1 is hand rolled into a Cervantes vitola, with measurements of 165mm with a 42-ring gauge. They are often referred to as a perfect example of an elite Cuban cigar, sitting so perfectly between your fingers like they were made just for you.

With its Colorado wrapper, this cigar is a safe bet for lovers of the classic Lonsdale. Medium tobacco mixed with sweet cocoa and vanilla fills the mouth and gracefully tingles the palate without any frivolities. A well-rounded stick with a trace of classic Havana.

They are hand-rolled and filled with the finest tobacco leaves from the Piñar del Rio region of Cuba. This range is aged for two years before being released, making them an excellent smoke right out of the box.

The No.1 has a delicious aroma of toasted tobacco, once lit it offers a smooth draw that opens up to a rich, creamy smoke that feels decadent in the mouth. We found complex flavors of toasted tobacco, coffee, cocoa, and vanilla that develop in a sophisticated manner, with each third offering a distinct progression while never becoming too hot or bitter.

The body of this smoke hovered around the medium strength mark from beginning to end.
