About Montecristo 1935 Anniversary Nicaragua
Montecristo 1935 Anniversary Nicaragua is an exceptional, medium-to-full bodied puro crafted specifically to celebrate the brand's 85th birthday. Rather than relying on their traditional Dominican rolling facilities, the brand tapped legendary Master Blender A.J. Fernandez to construct this milestone release. All the tobaccos used in this blend are grown exclusively on Fernandez's private farms in Nicaragua, and the cigars are meticulously hand-rolled at his famed San Lotano factory in Ocotál. The result is a powerful, modern reinterpretation of the classic Montecristo profile that stays completely true to its heritage while delivering raw Central American power.
The tasting notes of this Nicaraguan puro are incredibly complex and deeply satisfying. Wrapped in a pristine, dark Nicaraguan leaf, the initial cold draw hints at heavy earth and cedar. Once lit, the rich Nicaraguan binder and filler tobaccos push forward intense layers of roasted coffee, dark chocolate, and toasted nuts. Because the heavy ligero leaves are balanced perfectly with the more combustible seco, the draw remains flawless. The smoke transitions beautifully in the second half, introducing subtle, warm spices that linger elegantly on the palate down to the final third.
This blend is highly sought-after by connoisseurs, particularly because of its unique finishing process. A great fun fact about this release is that after the cigars are expertly box-pressed, they are sent to the aging room for an additional two full years before they are released to the public. This extended rest allows the bold Nicaraguan tobaccos to marry perfectly, smoothing out any rough edges. To ensure these well-aged, oily leaves arrive in pristine condition, we ship every box directly from our humidor. Our factory-fresh sourcing model and strict 70/70 climate control guarantee your cigars are ready to smoke the moment you open the box.

Pairing & Recommendations
To complement the rich dark chocolate and heavy coffee tasting notes of this Nicaraguan puro, we recommend pairing it with a neat pour of an aged, cask-strength rum or a creamy, dark stout. The natural molasses sweetness of the rum easily cuts through the spicy kick of the Nicaraguan filler, allowing the earthy wrapper to shine on your palate. It is a bold, late-evening choice, best enjoyed after a hearty meal when you have the time to sit back and appreciate the deep complexity of the blend.
Given the box-pressed format and the deeply fermented nature of the wrapper, use a razor-sharp double-guillotine cutter to snip the cap firmly and cleanly, making sure you do not pinch the head of the vitola (especially on the tapered No. 2). Toast the foot patiently with a soft flame or hold your torch lighter a few inches away to avoid shocking the dense leaves. Keep your puffing cadence slow and rhythmic; smoking too fast will cause the box-pressed core to overheat, which can easily mask the subtle toasted nut and spice nuances that make this blend so spectacular.
Frequently Asked Questions
Here you'll find answers to frequently asked questions for both first-time and experienced smokers
How much does a Montecristo 1935 Anniversary Nicaragua cigar cost?
The Montecristo 1935 Anniversary Nicaragua price ranges from roughly $159.95 for a 10-count box of the Robusto up to $278.95 for a 20-count box of the Demi vitola. This pricing reflects the immense agricultural effort required to cultivate these tobaccos exclusively on A.J. Fernandez’s farms, as well as the additional two-year aging process applied after the cigars are box-pressed.
How to store a Montecristo 1935 Anniversary Nicaragua cigar?
You should store every Montecristo 1935 Anniversary Nicaragua cigar in a properly seasoned humidor maintained under strict 70/70 climate control (70% humidity and 70 degrees Fahrenheit). Because these leaves are incredibly rich in natural oils and have been aged for two years post-roll, keeping them at these exact levels ensures the wrapper does not crack and the complex flavor transitions remain intact.
Are Montecristo 1935 Anniversary Nicaragua cigars of good quality?
Yes, they are an exceptional, top-tier smoke. When you read a Montecristo 1935 Anniversary Nicaragua review from industry experts, you will consistently see praise for its flawless box-pressed construction and dramatic flavor evolution. It is widely regarded as one of the most successful and robust non-traditional blends ever released by the famous brand, perfectly executing the collaboration with A.J. Fernandez.
How strong is a Montecristo 1935 Anniversary Nicaragua cigar?
This liga sits firmly in the medium-to-full bodied strength category. The pure Nicaraguan tobacco blend delivers a substantial nicotine impact and heavy spice, making it an ideal choice for veteran smokers who prefer darker, heavier profiles compared to the brand’s traditional Dominican offerings.
