Montecristo with Cameroon Wrapper
Posted: Monday, April 30, 2007
By David Savona
Following in the footsteps of the sold-out Montecristo
Serie V, Altadis U.S.A. Inc. has released the
Montecristo Serie C, the newest Montecristo cigar made
with Cameroon wrapper.
Cameroon is a fickle leaf, and there has rarely been
enough of it to meet world demand. It is grown not only
in Cameroon, but in neighboring Central African
Republic. The leaf is traditionally grown by family farmers
on small plots of about one acre in size, which keeps
production limited.
