The story of Montecristo Espada is incredibly fascinating.
Recently, Montecristo and renowned tobacco grower and cigar maker
Nestor Plasencia joined forces in a partnership. This allowed
Montecristo's expert blending team, known as the "Grupo de
Maestros," to have full access to Plasencia's highly-regarded
library of tobaccos and state-of-the-art factory. The Grupo de
Maestros spent several months creating a unique blend that
differs from any other Montecristo before it. The end result was
a Nicaraguan puro bursting with bold flavors, worthy of the
prestigious Montecristo name. Aptly named "sword," Espada
utilizes Plasencia's special tobacco collection, along with a
beautiful 2010 Habano wrapper from Jalapa, Nicaragua. Underneath
lies an all-Nicaraguan blend of well-aged long-fillers from
Jalapa, Ometepe, and Condega that were carefully chosen for their
strength, flavor, or body.
The Montecristo Espada is the first 100% Nicaraguan Montecristo
cigar made from tobaccos from all over Nicaragua...and Nestor
Plasencia is at the forefront of it all. Known for its premium
handmade cigars, Plasencia contributes only the best aged and
refined leaves to Montecristo's Grupo de Maestros blending team for
this project.
A few years ago, Montecristo's revered blending team, the Grupo de
Maestros, came to an agreement with the Plasencia family of tobacco
growers that granted them access to their most exquisite leaves.
This led to the creation of the Montecristo Espada, a cigar that
became renowned for its excellence. So successful was the original
blend, the Grupo de Maestros went back to Plasencia's stores and
crafted an even more outstanding variety: The Montecristo Espada
Oscuro. With this revised edition, the 2010 Jalapa Habano wrapper
has been replaced with a vintage Habano Rosado Oscuro.
Montecristo Espada Magnum is a luxurious premium cigar, packed with
100% Nicaraguan tobacco. Grown in the country’s lush soils, this
Cuban-style full flavored smoke is certain to satisfy. Packaged in
an elegant wooden box containing 10 cigars, this medium to full
body pleasure is an ideal present for yourself next time you order
online.
Montecristo Espada Quillon has landed. Making a debut as
Montecristo's first Nicaraguan puro, the cigar is crafted from
Cuban-seed Habano leaves from Jalapa for both its wrapper and
binder and is filled with a combination of tobaccos from Jalapa,
Ometepe, and Condega. The Quillon draws its name from the Espada
Ropera—an extravagant sword intended for civilian use rather than
warfare—and mirrors this luxurious character in its intense
spiciness and ornate three dimensional band.
A few years ago, Montecristo's celebrated Grupo de Maestros made a
deal with the Plasencia family to access a wealth of their best
tobacco. This agreement led to the production of the acclaimed
Montecristo Espada. Its success was such that it prompted its
makers to go further and craft an equally outstanding variant - the
Espada Oscuro. For this blend, they substituted the Jalapa Habano
wrapper from 2010 for an aged Habano Rosado Oscuro, elevating the
bar higher than before.
When tobacco legends unite, the result is Montecristo Espada. This
puro is the first Nicaraguan creation of its kind from Montecristo!
A spicy, rich and complex flavor profile derives from tobaccos
sourced from all over Nicaragua. The renowned Nestor Placencia
contributes only his finest aged and refined leaf that's skillfully
blended by Montecristo's Grupo de Maestros. Buy this famous blend

In 2014, Altadis and the Plasencia family launched the Montecristo
Espada line - a cigar made entirely of Nicaraguan tobacco. The
Montecristo Espada Oscuro is their latest creation, featuring an
Habano Rosado Oscuro wrapper. All other tobaccos remain unchanged
from the original release. This new cigar has been developed by
Rafael Nodal in conjunction with Pedro Ventura, head of Altadis'
prestigious Grupo de Maestros.
