Synonymous with superior quality and fine craftsmanship, Montecristo 1935 Edicion Diamante line is a treasure unearthed. Handmade in Nicaragua at the world-renowned Tabacalera AJ Fernandez, the Edición Diamante cigars are confirmed to meet the highest quality standards before public release. An exquisite cigar crafted to please the sophisticated palates of aficionados in search of the finest premium cigar experience the earth has to offer.
Much like the creation of a precious diamond, the tobaccos used in the Edición Diamante are finely honed after being harvested. The pristine Nicaraguan wrappers are conditioned, graded, and selected for a second fermentation. This “Second Fermentation” acts to further even out and develop the color of the tobacco wrapper and eliminates any potential rawness, accounting for much of the Edición Diamante’s sweet, smooth, and polished rich flavor.

Following the exceptionally good #2 Cigar of 2021, the Montecristo 1935 Anniversary Edicion Diamante is a more mellow interpretation of its top-rated predecessor. Once again, the celebration of Montecristo’s 85th anniversary falls on the famous master blenders Rafael Nodal and A.J. Fernandez to do this top-shelf brand justice. When developing the 1935 Anniversary Nicaragua, several test blends were tried with the final decision coming down to two blends. One went on to become the 1935 Anniversary Nicaragua, but Rafael and A.J. knew that the other blend would also be spectacular – it just needed a bit more time to age. Now, that time has come, and the 1935 Anniversary Edicion Diamante is a true gem of a blend. They are crafted by hand crafted at the legendary Tabacalera A.J. Fernandez into 5 popular sizes, each box-pressed and fashioned with a blend of top-shelf Nicaraguan tobaccos. Three different kinds of tobaccos from Esteli are used for the long fillers, which are covered with an aged Criollo binder from Ometepe and a unique Cuban-seed Hybrid wrapper from Jalapa.

Montecristo cigars are some of the best known of the Cuban expat cigar brands. After Fidel Castro’s nationalization of many cigar brands in 1960, cigar manufacturers carried seed and band in their pockets to new locales in the Canary Islands or Jamaica. Montecristo is now made by Altadis USA in the much-lauded Tabacalera de Garcia in the Dominican Republic. They are Dominican handmade cigars with finely aged filler tobaccos.
Montecristo began with Alonso Menendez as a humble brand in 1935. Named after the favorite novel of the factory’s cigarmakers, The Count of Monte Cristo, the brand grew steadily in popularity and success until it was nationalized by Fidel Castro in 1960. Alonso Menendez and his business partners fled to the Canary Islands and later the Dominican Republic, releasing an expat brand of Montecristo cigars to the American public in the 1970’s. Today, both brands are household names for American cigar smokers.
