To commemorate the Chinese Year of the Dragon in 2024, the Montecristo Brillantes was launched, boasting a robust yet refined profile as a medium to full-bodied cigar. Measuring 128 mm in length and featuring a 53-ring gauge, this cigar showcases a dark brown, lustrous wrapper that envelops a carefully crafted blend of tobaccos sourced from Cuba's esteemed Vuelta Abajo region. As it is smoked, the flavor profile unfolds with initial notes of roasted undertones, gradually giving way to woody and subtly sweet characteristics. Further complexity is introduced with the emergence of rich aromas, including cocoa, nuts, and a touch of pepper, all underscored by delicate fruit notes. The cigar is distinguished by its effortless draw and impeccable combustion, resulting in a compact, light gray ash. With a smoking duration of around 40 minutes, it pairs exquisitely with fine spirits such as rum or mature whiskey, making it a sophisticated accompaniment.
