The Montecristo Petit No.2 is a 4 3/4″ by 52 ring gauge, premium hand rolled Cuban cigar. This cigar as the name suggests, is a shorter format of the classic Montecristo No.2 which offers the option of a shorter smoke time. Notes of dark roasted expresso coffee, chocolate, cream and cedar mix with an earthy spice deepen as the cigar transitions. These enhance the rich natural tobacco flavours of the Cuban leaf.  Perfectly balanced and constructed this is a medium strength cigar which will delight the palate.

The Brand

Montecristo is the best known and probably the most appreciated brand of Havanas throughout the world. It forms the benchmark for many Havana smokers against which other brands are judged.

The name comes from Alexandre Dumas’ famous novel ‘The Count of Montecristo’, which was a firm favourite when read to the Torcedores (cigar rollers) at the factory where it was founded in 1935.

The original Montecristo range of sizes was composed of a narrow assortment numbered from 1 to 5. Today it consists of a wide variety of vitolas to cover every level of the cigar enthusiast’s needs.

2009 saw the introduction of a new Series, Montecristo Open, consisting of four sizes blended to a lighter flavour than other sizes in Montecristo’s range and aimed at a new generation of smokers, who enjoy the pleasures of outdoor pursuits.

More recently the 2017 addition of La Linea 1935 provided a welcome full-flavoured option for the brand’s many admirers.

Whether it is within the classic medium-to-full line, the lighter Open Series or the newer, more powerful, Linea 1935, Montecristo’s 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.
