Every Montecristo Open Eagle Tubos (3) is guaranteed 100% authentic, sourced directly from Habanos S.A. with the official seal and full traceability from Vuelta Abajo to your door.
The Montecristo Open Eagle belongs to the Open line that Habanos S.A. introduced in 2009, a range conceived to carry the famous Montecristo character in a lighter, more accessible register aimed at relaxed outdoor smoking. Where the classic Montecristo numerals lean toward depth and intensity, the Open Eagle softens the palette into something easygoing and approachable. Presented here in a three-pack of aluminium tubos, each cigar arrives protected and travel-ready, the format that keeps the wrapper pristine until you are ready to light up. The Eagle wears the Geniales vitola, a generous thick-gauge format that rewards a slow, unhurried draw.
This is a mild to medium smoke that opens with smooth cedar and a clean, lightly sweet entry, more wood and cream than spice. As you settle into the middle third, the profile fills out with vanilla, roasted nuts, and a soft mineral edge, the kind of gentle complexity that never turns aggressive. Toward the final third you may notice cocoa and a touch of coffee with a faintly woody, balanced finish. Throughout, the wide 54 ring gauge keeps the burn cool and the smoke output generous, so the flavors stay rounded rather than sharp.
The aluminium tubo offers a layer of protection, but for proper conditioning store these cigars in a seasoned humidor held around 65 to 70 percent relative humidity and roughly 16 to 18 degrees Celsius. The Open Eagle drinks well young, with its bright cedar and cream already integrated, yet a few months of rest tends to marry the sweeter notes and smooth the finish further. Because the blend is on the milder side, there is no need for long-term aging to tame it, though patient smokers will find the woody backbone settles nicely over time.
This cigar suits the smoker who wants the Montecristo name without a heavy hit of strength. It is an excellent daytime companion, well matched to a morning coffee, a round of golf, or a slow afternoon outdoors, and it makes a forgiving introduction for those still building tolerance for fuller Cuban blends. Seasoned aficionados will also appreciate it as a relaxed change of pace when they are not chasing intensity.

Exceptional cigar from Montecristo. The Montecristo Open Eagle Tubos (3) delivers on every level - flavor, construction, consistency. Beautiful notes of cocoa and cream throughout the 63 minute smoke. This is why Cuban cigars are legendary!
Best cigar I've had in a long time! Montecristo really knocked it out of the park with the Montecristo Open Eagle Tubos (3). Rich flavor profile featuring wood and leather, perfect draw, and excellent burn. Can't recommend this enough!
Top-tier quality from Montecristo. The Montecristo Open Eagle Tubos (3) showcases everything I love about Cuban cigars - impeccable craftsmanship, smooth draw, and layers of flavor. Picked up notes of cocoa and cream. Burned evenly throughout. A must-try for any serious aficionado!
The Montecristo Open Eagle Tubos (3) is a respectable cigar. Nice notes of almonds and honey, decent construction. However, I found it a bit one-dimensional compared to other Montecristo offerings. Not bad, but there are better options in this price range.
Really enjoyed this Montecristo Open Eagle Tubos (3). Montecristo consistently delivers quality and this is no exception. Good complexity with notes of earth and nuts. Construction was solid and burn was even. A bit pricey but you get what you pay for with Cuban cigars. Recommended!
Decent cigar but not my favorite from Montecristo. The Montecristo Open Eagle Tubos (3) has good flavor - cedar and coffee - but didn't wow me like other Cubans I've had. Construction was fine, burn was mostly even. It's good, just not exceptional. Worth trying though.
