So you like Montecristo cigars
Montecristo cigars first began to be produced in 1935 by a man titled Garcia Menendez in Havana, Cuba. At this particular time, he was also the owner of the H. Upmann cigar brand which was extremely popular. The study for the Montecristo cigars came from the novel, the Count of Monte Christo which was very favourite reading during that time, especially among those that rolled cigars.
The Montecristo brand is the most acquirable Cuban cigar or in another words I guess, the most favourite one. It was only after Cohiba brand was introduced that the Montecristo’s popularity fell to number two. The construction and the variety of flavors that can be found in this brand is truly amazing and one of the finest hand rolled Cuban cigars ever created in history of not just Cuba but the world.
The variety this brand offers is very inviting to the young or new cigar enthusiast. Montecristo offers hand rolled and even organisation rolled cigars. What do I prefer? Hand rolled of course. I mean I’ve been smoking Cuban cigars for almost 10 years now so I have my own certain preference. For you, if you are a new comer, that if your Montecristos are organisation rolled, that is actually not bad and it will help you further understand and appreciate this legendary brand.
Montecristo cigars have also stepped away from the hand rolled tradition to a certain extent and have added three different organisation rolled cigars into the mix, the mini, the Purito and the club. Of all of the Montecristo cigars that are in existence, however, the Montecristo number 4 is not only the best-known cigar that is rolled by this company, it is the world’s best-selling cigar.
Although this particular cigar generally gives a great smoke with a lot of unique taste, it is also reported that there are inconsistencies at times, even within a particular box. Regardless of what anyone says, the Montecristo will always be a great cigar.
