Montecristo Dantes Cigar Limited Edition 2016
The long and eagerly awaited Montecristo Dantès cigar has finally landed in our humidor after a two-month delay, and boy, were they worth the wait!
The Dantès is a 2016 Limited Edition that is presented in SBN boxes that contain 10 cigars, each dressed with the Edition Limitada second band. The cigar is a Hermoso No.1 that measures 6⅝” x 48 ring gauge and the Dantès will be the first cigar of this vitolato to be represented in the iconic Montecristo marque, using specially selected tobacco leaves grown in the Vuelta Abajo zone which are all then aged for a minimum of two years.
Interestingly, the Dantès was named after Edmundo Dantès, the lead character of Alexandre Dumas 1844 novel The Count of Monte Cristo which proved to be the inspiration for the name of the brand back in the 1930’s when the novel was read to and enjoyed by the torcedors.
