Montecristo White Toro

The Montecristo White Series takes the smoothness the brand is known for and gives it more to say. A hand-selected Ecuadorian Connecticut Shade wrapper — grown under natural cloud cover for a thin, near-veinless, blonde leaf — is laid over a Nicaraguan binder and a long-filler blend of Dominican and Nicaraguan tobaccos. The result sits a shade richer than the Classic: creamy and buttery up front, with almond, sweet cedar and a gentle peppery lift on the finish. Mild-to-medium, impeccably rolled at Tabacalera de Garcia, and one of the most reliable everyday cigars in the humidor.

6″ x 54, presented in a generous box of 27 — the everyday size, bought the way regulars buy it.
