Montecristo Espada Ricasso - Robusto (5 x 54)

Meaning “sword,” the Espada line stands apart as one of the most distinctive creations ever released by Montecristo. Crafted in collaboration with the renowned Grupo de Maestros and the legendary Plasencia family, the Espada by Montecristo is a Nicaraguan puro that delivers bold richness and intensity worthy of its name.

The Montecristo Espada Ricasso is a finely executed 5” x 54 cigar wrapped in a beautifully aged 2010 Habana Jalapa leaf. Beneath it rests a 2009 Habana Jalapa binder, encasing a vintage blend of 2008 Habano Jalapa Seco, Habano Jalapa Viso Ometepe, and Habano Condega Ligero filler tobaccos. The all-Nicaraguan composition creates a deeply expressive and authentic smoking experience.

Lasting between 45 minutes and an hour, the Espada Ricasso opens with powerful notes of earth, cedar, and pepper. As the cigar develops, layers of nutmeg, cream, and spice emerge, adding depth and balance. A lively touch of citrus brightens the finish, bringing the experience to an intense yet satisfying close.

With each size named after a component of a sword and flavors that reflect strength and precision, the Espada by Montecristo pays tribute to adventure and craftsmanship. Rich, complex, and unapologetically bold, the Espada Ricasso is a memorable choice for enthusiasts seeking a distinctive and full-flavored cigar experience.
