Alongside a few brands, Montecristo is firmly entrenched as a pillar of the cigar industry worldwide. Cigars under the Montecristo label began their life in 1935 in Havana, having acquired its name from a famous book. In old Cuba, it was commonplace for cigar rollers to be entertained throughout the day by a fellow employee reading stores aloud. A favorite among the rollers in one particular factory was The Count of Montecristo, and we're sure you can see from where the inspiration was drawn.
This week we're highlighting the best-selling Montecristo Churchill Extra (7.5"x52): through Sept. 15th, packs of 10 are priced at less than $6.00 per cigar!
When someone asks you to name a brand of cigars, Montecristo will surely be at the top of your list. The quintessential Dominican-version of this brand has legions of fans, and will suit any palate with a remarkable consistency. Packed with a luscious blend of Dominican long-fillers, Montecristo is topped off with a light, savory Connecticut Shade wrapper, bringing about notes of cream, white pepper, herbs, and cedar. This mellow gem is the perfect pairing for your morning coffee, as well as one to enjoy any time of day.
