Montecristo Pilotico Pepe Mendez
Wrapper: Ecuadorian Sumatra
Binder: Dominican
Filler: Nicaraguan and Dominican Pilotico
Country of Origin: Dominican Republic
Cigar Strength: Medium - Full-Bodied
Featuring a rare Cuban-seed Dominican Pilotico leaf grown by Mendez and Co., this amazing cigar is the result of a long-time alliance between the Mendez family and Montecristo’s makers.
Cross-bred to be stronger, heartier and less delicate, this special tobacco has been used to craft an unforgettable cigar featuring a nutty, leathery and sweet tasting profile. Pilotico leaf was a Cuban treasure and is now being cultivated by Jose “Don Pepe” Mendez in the Dominican Republic.
This modern treasure features an Ecuadorian Sumatra wrapper surrounding a Dominican binder and Nicaraguan filler combined with the amazing Pilotico filler leaf. The overall smoke is medium to full-bodied, quite smooth and very unique.
You won’t want to miss this opportunity to smoke a special Montecristo.
