Description

The Montecristo Open Eagle epitomises Cuban outdoor elegance in its commanding Geniales vitola—precisely 5.9 inches long with a 54 ring gauge—hand-rolled tripa larga, totalmente a mano from select Vuelta Abajo tobaccos at Havana’s factories, launched in 2009 for the Montecristo Open Golf Tournament to entice novices with milder refinement. Its silky Colorado wrapper, lighter-toned and impeccably capped, veils a light-to-medium core exuding pre-light cedar, cream, and spice; ignition unveils woody freshness, sweet florals, cashew nuttiness, coffee roast, cinnamon whispers, leather nuance, and creamy tobacco progression over 45-60 minutes of cool, voluminous smoke. Perfect draw, even burn, and firm ash suit golf links or sailing—ideal morning ritual with coffee; 2+ years’ ageing deepens complexity.
