Montecristo
Open Eagle Single Cigar
MONTECRISTO
Montecristo is the best known and probably the most appreciated brand of Havanas throughout the world. It forms the benchmark for many Havana smokers against which other brands are judged.
The name comes from Alexandre Dumas’ famous novel ‘The Count of Montecristo’, which was a firm favourite when read to the Torcedores (cigar rollers) 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 a wide variety of vitolas to cover every level of the cigar enthusiast’s needs.
Whether it is within the classic medium-to-full line, the lighter Open Series or the newer, more powerful, Linea 1935, Montecristo’s perfectly balanced blends are all created exclusively with selected filler and binder leaves from the Vuelta Abajo zone, home of the finest tobaccos in the world.
OPEN EAGLE
The Open range offer Montecristo lovers a medium bodied smoke still offering Montecristos classic flavours.
The largest of the Open series, its commanding 54 ring gauge format houses a different, lighter tobacco blend than you find in standard Montecristos. Suits experienced and novice smokers alike.

"There are a few gnarly veins to the wrapper of this otherwise attractive cigar. It burns unevenly, but draws well offering a heady combination of savory wood and nutty notes. The finish is sweet with marzipan an sassafras..."
