Historical Significance

Released on January 1, 2006, the Montecristo Edmundo Travel Humidor holds the distinction of being the first product launched under the Duty Free and Travel Retail Series banner. This initiative by Habanos S.A. created a dedicated channel for exclusive releases targeting the international travel market, a segment that has since grown substantially in importance.

The Edmundo vitola itself remains a current production size in the Montecristo lineup, named after Edmundo Dantès, the protagonist of Alexandre Dumas' classic novel "The Count of Monte Cristo." This robusto extra format has proven popular among aficionados seeking a fuller smoking experience from the Montecristo brand.
