History and heritage
Founded in 1935, Montecristo No. 5 has inherited its reputation from the renowned Montecristo cigar house. This brand, emblematic of Cuban excellence, is the fruit of the labor and passion of Cuban master torcedores. This reference is chiselled for true Havana lovers, in the eternal quest for a short cigar with intense, authentic flavours.
Master design
With a length of 102 mm and a diameter of 15.87 mm, this very small corona, or minuto, is the epitome of complexity in small dimensions. Its construction is the work of the most skilful craftsmen, knotting in every turn tobacco leaves from Vuelta Abajo, the preferred region for Cuban tobacco, world-renowned for its fertile soil and ideal climate.
A cylinder with character
The Montecristo No. 5 comes with a carefully selected wrapper, whose light colorado shade reflects a silky texture and shows subtle veins. Montecristo 's exacting tradition guarantees an even burn and a wrapper that unfurls with finesse, releasing the brand's distinctive wood and spice aromas.
A dialogue of flavors
A strength classified as 'medium', this cigar expresses a balanced taste profile. Earthy, woody notes open the ballet, accompanied by sweet spices, before the palate awakens to nuances of cocoa and coffee, conceding complexity to every puff, revealed by the expert tobacco blend.
Tasting experience
Montecristo No. 5's commitment to the smoker is truly fulfilled in a smoking time estimated at between 5 and 15 minutes, making it ideal for enjoying a thoughtful break during the day. It's a perfect symbiosis for the connoisseur looking for a brief but memorable experience, revealing Cuban savoir-faire without requiring the commitment of a large module.
