Montecristo is the best known and probably the most appreciated of all the Habanos brands since it was created in 1935. It s considered by many enthusiasts the flavour reference by which all other Habanos are measured.

Montecristo’s exquisite blend of tobaccos has been exclusively produced using selected leaves from [tippy title="Vuelta Abajo"]The finest tobacco-growing land in the world, Vuelta Abajo is the main source of tobacco for Habanos, and the only zone that grows all types of leaf: wrappers, fillers and binders.

The original blend of the Línea Clásica, with a medium to full flavour offers a distinguished aroma that continues to captivate both experienced smokers and novices alike.

In Cuba it refers to the size and shape of a cigar (vitola de galera factory name, vitola de salida market name) and also to a particular size of cigar in an individual packing.

To some it has an almost spiritual meaning encapsulating every aspect of their cigar of choice.[/tippy] numbered from 1 to 5, gradually expanding to cater for the varied tastes of Habano lovers.

This is the first addition in the Línea Clásica in many years. Montecristo Petit No.2 (ring gauge 52 x 120 mm in length) is a figurado -tapered at one end- shape in keeping with the brand’s tradition, the classical  being considered one of the references for the figurado category.
