MONTECRISTO - A LEGENDARY BRAND
The brand takes its name from The Count of Monte Cristo. Tobacco factory lector H. Upmann read Alexandre Dumas’s classic novel to the rollers at the factory where the brand was founded in 1935. The rollers enjoyed it so much that the brand was named after the protagonist. It has been considered one of the world’s most prestigious brands ever since.

Their exquisite blend is made from leaves from Vuelta Abajo, the best tobacco-growing region in the world.
