About this cigar
This cigar has a good cap and a fine sheen to the wrapper. It's a toasty and floral smoke, with a note of coffee bean and a touch of cocoa on the finish. 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 where it was founded in 1935. The original Montecristo range of sizes was composed of a narrow assortment numbered from 1 to 5. Today it consists of plenty of 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.

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.
