The brand traces its origins to 1935 when Alonso Menendez and José García established production at Havana's Particulares factory. The name derives from Alexandre Dumas' 1844 novel The Count of Montecristo, which cigar rollers frequently heard read aloud during work sessions. This historical connection helped establish Montecristo as the world's leading premium cigar brand, with its No.4 vitola remaining particularly popular in the UK market.
