The Montecristo brand has a long history of releasing highly rated cigars that have stood the test of time and garnered legions of loyal fans. To celebrate the brand’s 85th year in business, Altadis USA brought together some of the industry’s best master cigar crafters. First up from Altadis brand ambassador Rafael Nodal, and the Grupo de Maestros with master blender AJ Fernandez rounding out the team.

The result is an anniversary blend that received a 95-point rating and the #2 Cigar of 2021 rating. Handcrafted at AJ Fernandez’s famed San Lotano Factory in Ocotal, Nicaragua, this medium-to-full bodied Nicaraguan puro uses premium tobaccos grown at AJ’s farms. Starting with an oily, dark maduro wrapper over premium binder and filler tobaccos, you can expect notes of wood, coffee, cinnamon, earth, spice, and naturally sweet tobacco.

Whether you’re to celebrate a special occasion or you can just appreciate a special blend, this is one cigar that you’ll want in your humidor. See what happens when some of the industry’s best come together. Get yours today at cigora.com.
