Montecristo Open Eagle Cigar – 1 Single Cigar

Description

Montecristo Open Eagle Cigar – 1 Single Cigar

The Montecristo Open Eagle is the largest cigar in the Open range and has a hefty 54 ring gauge. This vitola is known as “Geniales” and is also vitola used for the Hoyo de Monterrey Le Hoyo de San Juan. These are both large cigars, a couple of largest straight-sided Cuban cigars available (closely followed by the Romeo Y Julieta Wide Churchills and not including some limited editions).

Montecristo cigars take their name from Alex Dumas’ famous book “The Count of Montecristo” which was a favourite when it was read to the cigar rollers, or Torcedores, whilst they worked. The factory was founded in 1935 and they make three ranges of cigars, the Linea Clasica, the Open Range and the Linea 1935. The Clasica range is a classic medium to full bodied range of cigars, whilst the Open range is a little lighter in style. The Linea 1935 range is the most premium and was launched in 2018.

Montecristo Open Eagle cigars were introduced in 2009 and, like the rest of the Open Series, have a slightly lighter blend than the standard range of Montecristo Cuban Cigars produced to target a new generation of smokes, particularly those that enjoy outdoor pursuits such as sailing and golf (hence Open, Regata and Eagle).
