Montecristo and Plasencia, a match made in heaven.
The story of Montecristo Espada is seriously interesting. Not long ago, Montecristo and famed tobacco grower and cigar maker Nestor Plasencia struck a deal. This deal would gave Montecristo's blending team, known as the 'Grupo de Maestros,' unrestricted access to Plasencia's world-renowned library of tobaccos and state of the art factory. There, the Grupo de Maestro's went to work, spending months creating the perfect blend. A blend that's unlike any other Montecristo ever before. A Nicaraguan puro that's overflowing with flavor. A cigar that's as near perfect as they come. A cigar that's easily fitting of the Montecristo name, but with a level of flavor that's surprising and welcomed. In short, Montecristo Espada is exceptional.
Meaning 'sword,' Espada makes full use of Plasencia's unique tobacco archive and employs a gorgeous Habano wrapper from 2010 grown in Jalapa, Nicaragua. Underneath, an all-Nicaraguan blend of bold, well-aged long-fillers from Jalapa, Ometepe, and Condega were each specifically selected for their strength, flavor, or body. The result is an extremely well-balanced, layered with rich, hearty notes of wood, pepper, coffee, cream, nuts, and sweetness. Elegant, refined, and loaded with complexity, Montecristo Espada is truly a world-class cigar.
Montecristo Espada received Top 25 honors for 2015 (#20 overall) and a well-deserved 92-rating noting: " offering the spice of a gingersnap with touches of cinnamon that build to a sweet, spicy finish."
