Montecristo Nicaragua | Churchill (7.0"x56) | Box of 20

Messing with an iconic name like Montecristo takes some serious confidence—and AJ Fernandez has proven time and again that he’s up for the challenge. Since joining forces with Montecristo, AJ has delivered hit after hit, and the Montecristo Nicaragua is yet another masterstroke. As the fifth addition to Montecristo’s Core Line—joining the White, Classic, Original, and Platinum—Nicaragua had big shoes to fill. And fill them it did. This Nicaraguan puro is a rich, full-bodied blend crafted entirely from premium tobaccos grown on AJ’s own farms. The result is a bold yet balanced profile, offering classic Nicaraguan spice paired with a signature natural sweetness. Earning an impressive 93-point rating and a spot as the #10 Cigar of the Year in 2018, critics praised its “dark, woody character” that reveals “dense, hearty layers of chocolate-covered coffee bean and dried fruit with every puff.” Rich, complex, and endlessly satisfying, Montecristo Nicaragua is a modern classic in the making.
