Montecristo - Wide Edmundo - Single Cigar
)
Product Description
The latest release from Habanos to arrive in the UK is the Montecristo Wide Edmundo. It is the fourth cigar in the brand’s portfolio to bear the Edmundo name, following the launch of the original in 2004. However, uniquely among its stablemates, the Wide Edmundo is dressed with a second band bearing its name. The Wide Edmundo is an entirely new vitola (size) within the Habanos portfolio called the Duke No.3. It measures an impressive 4 7/8” (125mm) x 54 ring gauge.. Perhaps unsurprisingly, that makes it the heaviest ring gauge in the Edmundo range.
Montecristo is the benchmark brand for many cigar smokers. Its 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. All sizes are ‘tripa larga, totalmente a mano’ – long filler, totally handmade.
Montecristo is one of the biggest Habanos brands in the UK for those who enjoy a little spice and in their lives. The brand dates back to the 1935 when it was first released as part of the H Upmann range. Initially called “the H. Upmann Montecristo Selection”, it gave the H Upmann factory a stronger and bolder addition to the line. When Hunters cigar importers in the UK, took over the factory it shortened the name and introduced the current Red & Yellow logo.
The brand now sits as one of Cubas biggest brands in regards the size its total output and is highly prized among cigars connoisseurs around the world. With the exception of the “Open Series”, Montecristo cigars are very rich with a woody, leather core to the taste with a spicy side. This powerful combination makes them a little too rich to for novice smokers, but for those who love a strong cigar after a big meal, they are perfect.
