Montecristo Petit No. 2

Montecristo Petit No. 2 – The Iconic Torpedo, Reimagined Shorter

The Montecristo Petit No. 2 brings the brand’s legendary piramides shape into a shorter format, launched in 2013 as a compact companion to the famous Montecristo No. 2. Hand-rolled from Cuban long-filler tobacco, it measures 120 mm (4.75″) with a 52 ring gauge and tapers to the same pointed head that defines the full-size original.

The tapered piramides construction concentrates smoke and flavor with every draw, and at this shorter length the medium body builds quickly, moving from a milder opening toward a fuller, rounder profile well before the final third.
