The Montecristo Espada Oscuro is the bolder, richer counterpart to the celebrated Espada line. Crafted entirely from Nicaraguan tobacco, this puro showcases an exceptional Habano Rosado Oscuro wrapper, chosen for its darker hue, refined oils, and intense depth of flavor. Developed by Montecristo’s legendary Grupo de Maestros in partnership with the esteemed Plasencia family, the Espada Oscuro continues the tradition of blending artistry and precision that defines the Montecristo legacy.
With its dark, oily wrapper and carefully balanced binder and filler leaves, the Espada Oscuro delivers a full-bodied profile that is both robust and complex. Aficionados will encounter bold layers of dark chocolate, espresso, and leather, complemented by hints of earth, white pepper, cocoa, and subtle fruit sweetness. Each draw evolves with richness, leaving behind a lasting and memorable finish.
Available in vitolas such as the Guard (Toro), Ricasso (Robusto), and Quillon (Double Corona), the Espada Oscuro offers formats suited to every enthusiast who craves a bold yet refined smoking experience. Its construction and flavor evolution make it a standout addition to any humidor, perfect for special occasions or pairing with fine spirits.
Within the Montecristo portfolio, the Espada Oscuro sits alongside iconic blends such as the Montecristo Classic, Montecristo 1935 Anniversary Nicaragua, and Edición Diamante, while offering a distinctive full-bodied expression that showcases the best of Nicaraguan craftsmanship.
For cigar lovers seeking power, elegance, and authenticity, the Montecristo Espada Oscuro is a must-try—an unforgettable representation of Montecristo’s mastery in the world of premium cigars.
