Rows in grey were last read more than 60 days ago: they are history, not quotes, and never count as the cheapest. Listed price for the box of 20 in the retailer's own currency, their own tax included. A box crossing a border picks up destination duty and VAT on top — the "duty paid EU" mark shows the few retailers whose price is all-in beyond their home market.

The piece
Montecristo's outdoor cigar. Open Junior is the smallest in the Open line — milder, sweeter, designed for golf-course smoking.
The Línea Open was launched in 2009 as Montecristo's answer to demand for a milder, more accessible Cuban smoke designed for outdoor settings — the line is explicitly marketed toward golfers, hikers, and 'open-air' smokers. The Open Junior is the smallest of the four Open vitolas (Junior, Eagle, Master, Regata) at 4.4 inches by a 38 ring — a slim Petit Robusto designed for a 30-to-40-minute window. The blend uses a lighter Vuelta Abajo filler and a paler, more uniform Habano wrapper than the Línea Clásica, giving the cigar a noticeably milder profile while keeping the Montecristo signature.
The smoke is the gentlest in the Montecristo catalogue. First third opens with hay, butter and a faint sweetness; the middle settles into a creamy cedar core with a touch of honey; the last third delivers a smooth, slightly sweet finish that holds without ever turning harsh. Across Europe a box of 20 (note: Open Series uses box of 20, not 25) sits in the €270 to €340 range: Noblego runs around €295, Cigarworld €310, Cigarmust CHF 330 (~€345 after FX), Italian licensed tabaccherie €300. The Open Junior is one of the most consistently in-stock Cuban SKUs and price-spread is narrow — making it a reliable comparison-shopping target.
Questions
Where is the cheapest place to buy Montecristo Open Junior in Europe right now?
We are tracking 6 European retailers that list Montecristo Open Junior. Stock is moving — refresh this page or save it to your watchlist to be alerted when any retailer restocks at a competitive price.
Will the listed price include duty + VAT for my country?
Only if you live where the retailer is. Every price on this page is all-in (excise duty + VAT included) in the retailer's home country and nowhere else. Buy from a German retailer to a German address and what you see is what you pay. Buy across a border — a Swiss retailer shipping into the EU, or any EU retailer shipping to the UK, Sweden, Denmark, Finland or Ireland — and the destination country charges its own tobacco excise and VAT on arrival. How much depends on the destination's excise rate; our import-duty guide walks through the main markets.
The few retailers whose price is all-in beyond their home market carry a "duty paid EU" mark in the table.
How does Montecristo Open Junior compare to other Montecristo cigars?
Montecristo Open Junior is a Petit Robusto, ring 38, 110 mm, medium strength, sold in a box of 20. The other Montecristo vitolas on the board, each with its own price page, are Montecristo No. 4, Montecristo No. 2, Montecristo Petit Edmundo, Montecristo Edmundo. Per-cigar price is the fair way to compare them: box sizes differ.
Is the price for Montecristo Open Junior likely to drop?
Habanos S.A. (the Cuban state tobacco monopoly) sets the worldwide release-price floor for every Habano in this catalogue. That floor went up roughly 40% during the 2022–2024 global price harmonisation, and Habanos has signalled further annual increases through 2027. So the long-term trend is up, not down.
Short-term, prices move at the retailer level — promotions, clearance, a restock at a different price. Where we have a history, the 90-day line on this page shows what the cheapest box in Europe has actually done. A price alert with no target emails you on any drop; setting a target limits it to your budget.
