Emanating from traditional Cuban know-how, Montecristo No. 2 stands out with its classic stature and remarkable composition. This pyramid, with its conical shape, is designed to offer a progressive and nuanced tasting experience. Generously sized, with a length of 156 mm and a diameter of 20.64 mm, it promises a sensory journey lasting 60 to 80 minutes.
Manufacturing and know-how
Conceived in one of the world's oldest tobacco terroirs, Montecristo No. 2 is the fruit of a heritage rooted in the heart of the fertile Vuelta Abajo region. The "totalmente a mano" hand-rolling method guarantees quality and attention to detail that meet the expectations of the most demanding connoisseurs.
A balanced aromatic fresco
From the moment it is lit, the signature of Montecristo No. 2 can be recognized, releasing woody and herbaceous notes before the appearance of spicy and roasted coffee accents. The transition of flavors is seamless, enhancing the experience with appreciable complexity without ever being oppressive. This balance is maintained over the course of the tasting, and accompanies the smoker through every stage of the experience.
A controlled power profile
The moderately powerful Montecristo No. 2 is meticulously constructed to evolve in intensity without overwhelming the palate. This is where its art lies, in its ability to build power to a crescendo without ever losing its refinement. This skilful balance makes it a wise choice for those in search of an intense yet accessible cigar.
Aesthetics and presentation
Visually, the Montecristo No. 2 captivates with its honey-colored, smooth, lightly oiled mantle, curled to perfection for visual as well as tactile pleasure. Even before the flame touches its foot, it promises elegance and character. The Montecristo ring, a symbol of Cuban cigars, completes the look, ensuring instant recognition among connoisseurs.
Heritage and tradition
Marked by decades of rich history, each Montecristo No. 2 carries a cultural heritage that transcends its composition alone. By choosing this cigar, you adopt a piece of Cuban history, a parcel of Pinar del Río land, and join a select circle of aficionados who, for generations, have recognized and celebrated excellence.
