The release of Monte by Montecristo AJ Fernandez brings a new dynamic element to the collaboration between AJ Fernandez and Altadis U.S.A.
The new Monte by Montecristo AJ Fernandez is a robust, medium to full-bodied cigar. Cloaked in a Dark Ecuadorian Habano wrapper and bound with a Corojo ‘98 binder, it delivers a stout, chocolatey aroma. A Criollo ‘98 and Piloto Cubano Dominican filler yield a nutty and caramel sweetness. For those who like bold flavor, this smoke will not disappoint.
AJ Fernandez has produced some of the most exciting blends of the past decade by combining old world technique with his own unique style at his factory in Estelí, Nicaragua. AJ Fernandez’s reputation for making strong, exquisitely crafted cigars is exceeded with the new Monte by Montecristo AJ Fernandez.
The Montecristo legacy was born in 1935 when Alonso Menéndez, owner of the Particulares Factory in Cuba, was inspired by the torcedores’ book of choice at the time, The Count of Montecristo. Since then the Montecristo brand has grown into one of the world’s most regarded brands among adult cigar smokers. Today the legacy lives on with the new Monte by Montecristo AJ Fernandez—a bold choice that’s refreshingly accessible.
