Description

The long and eagerly awaited Montecristo Dantèshas are finally available for sale. The Dantès is a 2016 Limited Edition and is presented in a SBN boxes containing 10 cigars, each dressed with the Edition Limitada second band. The cigar is a Hermoso No.1 (6⅝”(167mm) x 48 ring gauge) and the Dantès will be the first cigar of this vitola to be represented in the iconic Montecristo marque. The Dantès was named after Edmundo Dantès, the lead character of Alexandre Dumas 1844 novel The Count of Monte Cristo which proved to be the inspiration for the name of the brand back in the 1930’s when the novel was read to and enjoyed by the torcedors of the day as they hand crafted their masterpieces, a practice still in place today. Limited Edition cigars use specially selected tobacco leaves grown in the Vuelta Abajo zone which are all then aged for a minimum of two years.

STORAGE

For all cigars we advise that they are stored in a humidor at approximately 18°C and between 65-70% relative humidity. If no humidor is available, we would recommend a plastic zip-lock bag with a small spray of distilled water. This will keep the cigars fresh for up to three months.
