Montecristo stands as the most iconic Cuban cigar brand, born from the legendary novel 'The Count of Monte Cristo' by Alexandre Dumas. Established in 1935 at the H. Upmann factory in Havana, the brand quickly became synonymous with excellence in Cuban cigar making. The Linea 1935 represents a contemporary celebration of this storied heritage, featuring enhanced aging techniques and carefully selected tobacco from the prestigious Vuelta Abajo region. The Dumas vitola specifically honors the literary masterpiece that inspired the brand's name, symbolizing the timeless appeal and refined character that Montecristo has maintained for nearly a century.
