Montecristo Media Corona

90 points, Cigar Aficionado

#15 cigar of the year 2015, Cigar Journal

Media Corona literally translates as “Half Corona” and the size was first introduced in the UK back in 1907 by an English cigar importer who wanted to stop keeping his wife waiting for him at the theatre while he enjoyed the last of his Corona sized cigar.

This vitola is a Habano of intense flavour and nice smoke, with woody, dry and sweet touches, providing the aficionado with a complete and unctuous sensation in the mouth.

Montecristo Media Corona is characterised by the traditional flavour of the Línea Clásica of Montecristo more powerful because of its short length. Its natural brown wrapper of red touches gives it a beautiful presence.
