Montecristo Platinum
$167.91 – $389.60Montecristo Platinum is one of this iconic company’s most popular cigars for over 20 years.
For the record, the Platinum series is still pleasing discerning smokers since 2002. With attention to detail, this great cigar consists of quite the intriguing and complex blend of cigar tobaccos from four countries. When Cigar Aficionado gave the Churchill a 94 rating, it beat out most of it’s Cuban competitors. Their short and sweet description still applies today. “A hearty, meaty smoke with flavors of salty, roasted nuts and wood on the palate.”
Without doubt, this Montecristo is a long standing winner. To put it another way, aficionados will continue enjoying Platinum for years to come.
Like its counterparts, Platinum is perfectly made with a great draw. The bonus is this medium-full bodied beauty increases in intensity as you move it along to the glorious finish.

Montecristo Pilotico
$74.00 – $352.00Montecristo Pilotico is a very special edition from this long storied brand.
This 2017 creation has an interesting heritage. It turns out that around 50 years ago, Jose Pepe Mendez came upon a region in the Dominican Republic that proved to be perfect for growing tobacco leaves. It was here where he planted what is known as his Pilotico seeds. As time passed he also gained a reputation for establishing many growing techniques and grading guidelines that still exist today in the industry. The master blenders of Montecristo decided to pay homage to Mendez and his seeds by creating this three country blend that yields a sweet kind of medium bodied taste.
To put in another way, Blind Man’s Puff rated this one at 90. Cigar Coop gave it a 91. Without doubt, Pilotico is a must try for aficionados everywhere!

Montecristo Epic
$157.47 – $222.30Montecristo Epic is an epic achievement for this amazing brand. No pun intended. Even the boxes bear the signatures of the blenders that create them.
You know the name. What sets this 91 rated Epic series apart is two things. The rollers are the Maestros of the factory and the Dominican and Nicaraguan filler leaves used go back as far as 13 years.
Delivering rich nuances of caramel, chocolate, leather, espresso and cedar throughout its slow burn, without doubt this Montecristo is another winner! In other words, this is a solid medium to full bodied complex smoke that’s perfectly made, draws consistently, and is worth the price.

Alec Bradley American Sun Grown
$115.00 – $159.00The Alec Bradley American Sun Grown is an amazing pick by any standards.
When Alec Bradley introduced its American Blend back in 2012 it garnered high ratings and great reviews not only because it was a great overall cigar but also because it was priced right. This well made mellow to medium flavored stick was throwback to old school Florida craftsmanship. When this Sun Grown line came out in 2018 the Churchill garnered a 91 rating from Cigar Aficionado. Remember, this is a very affordable cigar! This medium-full bodied beautifully dark stick amps up the taste just a bit over the original Classic blend. However, this slow burning beauty seems as though it has double the amount of tobacco inside. Enjoy this great cigar made by Plasencia Cigars in Estelí, Nicaragua.

Binder: Nicaraguan (Jalapa)
Filler: Nicaraguan (Esteli and Condega)
