Montecristo Pepe Mendez Pilotico

Montecristo Pepe Mendez Pilotico is a very special cigar that honors the history of collaboration between the Mendez family, a family of renowned tobacco farmers in the Dominican Republic for three generations, and Altadis U.S.A.'s Grupo de Maestros. It is said that Pepe Mendez brought tobacco seeds in his suitcase when he left Cuba in the 60s and established himself in Dominican Republic's fertile Cibao Valley. Those seeds have now given birth to the rare "Pilotico" tobacco, a leaf that provides rich, bold, and elegant flavors and is only available in this cigar. The wrapper is Ecuadorian, with a Dominican binder and fillers from Nicaragua and Dominican Republic. The cigars are packaged in beautiful, handcrafted suitcase boxes.

Ask
Jim Kaar  If this is (was) as I understand it, a GREAT and very popular cigar, WHY is it discontinued or otherwise no longer available? Has the manufacturer stopped production?

  • NeptuneCigar.com  Hi, Jim. The reason it was discontinued is unknown to us, but it could have been for many reasons. I'm sorry we are not able to provide more insight.
