Voted #20 Cigar Aficionado's Top 25 cigars of 2015! Combining centuries of knowledge with a lifetime of passion, two of the greatest names in the premium tobacco industry join for an unrivaled, hand-rolled cigar. Blended by Montecristo’s world famous Grupo de Maestros and constructed with vintage tobaccos specially aged by the Plasencia family, Espada by Montecristo offers a rich, complex and deeply satisfying smoke. This truly unique and remarkable collaboration between cigar masters has created an exciting new chapter in the illustrious story of Montecristo, and a premium cigar that is not to be missed. Espada, which means “sword” in Spanish, is the first Montecristo with all of its tobacco coming from Nicaragua — a country celebrated for its robust and sweet tobaccos. Pick one up and enjoy a cigar of pure taste and true elegance.
Montecristo used the same approach with the Espada as it did with the Epic. Blended by the "Grupo de Maestros" and the Placencia Family, it is a work of beauty! For starters, this is the most handsome cigar box I have ever seen. The cigar presentation with deluxe banding makes you want to just look at it for hours. When you do sit to smoke it, just sit back and relax. It has just a bit of an acidic start, but evens quickly, great aroma, large smoke plume and even draw throughout. When the Epics are no longer available, this will be my sacred smoke!
