Montecristo

Seconds

Montecristo cigars are the height of perfection. Each and every offering in the prestigious brand’s inventory is carefully hand-selected from only the highest-graded tobacco and rolled to perfection. Often times, astute smokers wonder what happens to the cigars and tobacco leaves that don’t make the final box cut for Montecristo. The answer? Montecristo Seconds. Montecristo Seconds are an incredible value for cigar enthusiasts who are looking for a high-quality daily smoker that won’t break the bank. Like a garden that produces misshapen vegetables with incredible taste, there are times when a tobacco harvest yields delectable leaves that, due to some slight imperfection, simply isn’t going to meet the astronomical standards set by the perennial fan favorite. This is the real deal. This smoke isn't just constructed well; it's a masterpiece that performs perfectly. Beautifully made, perfect performance—it checks all the boxes. Prepare your senses for a rich, amazing experience. The secret is that buyers of Montecristo Seconds still get a world-class tour de force in Nicaraguan tobacco. The blend features three long-fillers from Estelí, locked down with an Ometepe Criollo binder, and wrapped up in a Nicaraguan hybrid from Jalapa. The result is a complex, medium-full bodied puro that is smooth enough for a beginner but rich enough for an old pro. The rich flavors of pepper, leather and earth blossom into notes of chocolate and espresso—not unlike some of the highest-rated Montecristo cigars that dominate Cigar Aficionado’s yearly Top 25 list. Seconds are a great long-term answer to the perpetual question: what am I smoking today? So often, we build up our collections without considering the strength of one’s day-to-day option, which often has the largest impact on our commute, breaks from work or ability to wind down in the evening. There are special occasion offerings and then there is Montecristo Seconds, which is a budget option comprised of special occasion filling, expert construction and the mark of Montecristo—a beacon of quality that anyone can easily understand.
