About Montecristo (United States)

Montecristo in the United States is a Dominican-made cigar sold by Altadis U.S.A., part of Tabacalera USA, which names it as one of its top-selling and most recognizable brands. It carries no ownership connection to the Cuban-made Montecristo that Habanos S.A. sells everywhere else in the world, a brand created in Havana in 1935. The two exist as separate products only because the US trade embargo on Cuba, in place since 1962, closed the American market to Cuban-made cigars and left US sellers to build a distinct business under the same name.
