So you like Montecristo cigars
One of the most popular Cuban cigars of all time, mentioned in countless movies, tv shows and pretty much all over the world, the Montecristo Cuban cigar made Cuban cigars international on a global level. Started in the year nineteen thirty five by ‘Garci’ as they called him, the Montecristo line up produces one of the best Cuban cigars known to man. It also happens to be quite a treat but we will definitely get to that later.
Since that time, Montecristo cigars have become one of the most popular cigars that are available throughout the entire world and it is held by many to be the standard as far as Cuban cigars are concerned. To be certain, any other Cuban cigars are judged by the Montecristo. The original Montecristo cigars continued to be manufactured and hand rolled for many years without anything new really being added to the brand.
Montecristo also offers a lot machine rolled cigars now which I guess can contribute to it’s decline in popularity. People like the rare and exotic notion that is attached to Cuban cigars and machine rolled cigars really don’t help. However, I understand it as the machine rolled Cuban cigars are very light in taste and great for beginners trying to step into the Cuban cigar genre to expand their horizons and senses. Remember though that the hand rolled version of Montecristo Cuban cigars are still considered one of the best cigars in the world.
Montecristo cigars have also stepped away from the hand rolled tradition to a certain extent and have added three different machine 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.
Montecristo are well known and very well distributed around the globe. If you can’t find a Cohiba, you will still find a Montecristo. It is a top selling brand for a reason and this is why the Montecristo is considered to be a part of Cuban heritage. Well done Mr.Garcia, well done indeed!
