Montecristo announced yesterday the addition of a 54 x 5 Robusto size extension to its celebrated 1935 Anniversary Nicaragua line. This expansion reflects the continued success and strong market presence of the Montecristo 1935 Anniversary Nicaragua series, which has garnered significant acclaim since its debut in 2020.

“The Montecristo 1935 Anniversary Nicaragua blend is exceptionally well-suited for this Robusto size,” said Rafael Nodal, VP of Product Capability for Tabacalera U.S.A., expressing enthusiasm about the addition. “While all sizes in the range perform admirably, we saw a unique opportunity to introduce a Robusto to the line.”
