Montecristo Nicaragua Toro

Cigar Intel

The Montecristo Nicaragua Series represents a bold departure from the brand’s Dominican legacy, leaning hard into the volcanic soil and sun-drenched power of Nicaraguan tobaccos. Developed in collaboration with renowned master blender AJ Fernandez, the Toro vitola showcases the line’s full-bodied identity in a longer, cooler-burning format.

Expect a strong opening of earth and pepper before it deepens into dark chocolate, espresso, and charred oak. Midway through, a tangy citrus note emerges, keeping the profile sharp and balanced. The construction is flawless, with a slow, even burn and firm ash throughout.

This is not your grandfather’s Montecristo. It’s a reinvention, made for those who crave strength without sacrificing sophistication.

Tasting Notes

The Montecristo Nicaragua Robusto kicks off with bold black pepper and charred oak, quickly settling into rich notes of espresso, leather, and dark chocolate.

Midway, hints of cedar, baking spice, and a touch of sweetness emerge, offering balance and complexity. It finishes strong with creamy cocoa and lingering spice, delivering a bold, full-bodied experience from start to finish.
