About this cigar

Montecristo No.2 - one of the best examples of Cuban Excellence:Crafted by the Alonso Menendez Company in the 1940s, the Montecristo range has become synonymous with outstanding quality and craftsmanship. The Montecristo No.2 cigar, with its length of 6 1/8" and a ring gauge of 52, offers a robust and satisfying smoking experience.

This strong cigar delights the palate with hints of nut, caramel, vanilla, and cocoa, creating a exceptional taste profile. Montecristo is the go-to choice for experienced cigar smokers, from the smaller No. 5 to the famous No. 2 torpedo. Unveiling the Essence of Montecristo:To fully appreciate the Montecristo No.2, a minimum ageing of three years is recommended.

This allows the cigar to reach its greatest potential, revealing its complex flavours and nuances. However, even fresh out of the box, Montecristo cigars are carefully crafted and aged, ensuring an enjoyable smoke from the moment you light up. A Legacy Rooted in Literature and Tradition:The name Montecristo pays homage to Alexandre Dumas's famous novel 'The Count of Montecristo.'

It was a beloved story among the torcedores (cigar makers) at the factory where Montecristo was founded in 1935. Since then, Montecristo has become a symbol of excellence and sophistication in the cigar world.

The Finest Tobacco Selection:Montecristo's perfectly balanced blends are created exclusively with selected filler and binder leaves from the Vuelta Abajo zone, renowned for producing the world's finest tobaccos. The original medium to full taste and medium flavour found in the Montecristo No.2 offer a distinguished aroma and appeal to both new and experienced smokers alike.

Questions we get asked

Provenance, packing and storage, answered plainly.

Is this box genuine English Market Selection stock?

Yes. Our Montecristo cigars come through Hunters and Frankau, the official UK importer for Habanos S.A. Every box carries the green EMS stamp, and UK duty and VAT are already paid.

How will it be packed?

It goes out in a sealed pouch with a free Boveda 69% humidity pack, which holds the cigars at roughly 65 to 70% humidity while they are in transit. We ship Royal Mail Tracked 24, or Special Delivery if you would rather.

How should I store it once it arrives?

Keep it in a humidor or an airtight box with a 65% or 69% Boveda pack, somewhere around 18 to 20°C. British houses get very dry in winter once the heating goes on, so a sealed container makes a real difference.
