The Cigar: Montecristo Epic Robusto (5.0 x 52)
The Hype: Rolled by the Elite!
Once upon a time, in a land far, far away there was a mystical collection of tobacco experts dubbed the 'Grupo de Maestros.' Their mission was to create the most flavorful, full-bodied blend under the Montecristo name. The result was EPIC! Hands down this is as premium as they come, and the masterminds behind this glorious creation should definitely be commended.
EPIC is the Montecristo for those enthusiasts that want a more robust and fuller-bodied cigar...and boy does it deliver with tsunami-sized waves of flavor. Utilizing vintage Dominican and Nicaraguan filler tobaccos from as early as 2007, this tasty handmade exudes complexity. A pristine Ecuadorian Habano wrapper is delicately lain over a Nicaraguan binder and completes this masterpiece. The result, is an exquisite blend that imparts pleasant notes of spice, cocoa, nuts, earth and coffee.
