Montecristo Cuban Cigars Especial No.1
- Size: 7 1/2 x 38

A twisted cap makes the Especial easily recognizable and adds to its intrigue and flare. It may be the picture of elegance but the Especial is as strong as an ox!
About Montecristo Cigars
Montecristo’s perfectly balanced blends are created exclusively with select filler and binder leaves from the Vuelta Abajo zone, home of the finest tobaccos in the world. They offer a distinguished aroma and appeal equally to new and experienced smokers. Made using the Tripa Larga, Totalmente a Mano – long filler, totally by hand – technique.
Montecristo is the best known and probably the 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.

Good classical size cigar. Comparing to Cohiba Lancero, I like this one better. Also, the ones I ordered are from 2008, and perfectly aged.
