Why must one's age be verified? 

As previously mentioned, this website is not intended for individuals under the age of 21 years old. If you are under 21 years old, you are prohibited from using this website. An individual's age must be verified AND confirmed in order for an order to be approved and a product to be shipped. We strictly abide by the regulations of the FDA, ATF, along with State and Federal laws. We are committed to only selling our products to adults who are of legal age in their state. We have partnered with BlueCheck, Inc to assure that you are of legal age to purchase tobacco.


How does BlueCheck Age Verification work? 

BlueCheck gathers the information given by the individual themselves when having completed the pages registration. This information acquired is what is required to verify the customers age. The customer's data is then compared against billions of records in the database. This process is extremely quick, and very capable of verifying the ages of the majority of the clientele. If after these steps there seems to be no match found for the customers age, then they will be prompted to complete another method of verification in order to continue to shop the website. Alternative ways of proving their age if no match is found in the database would be through the utilization of the last four digits of their Social Security, and/ or uploading a Photo ID. Once the customers age has been verified, these returning customers are instantly recognized and will NOT need to undergo this process again. 


What would occur if I fail the age verification process with BlueCheck? 

A small percentage of customers fail the verification process, usually due to limitations in the age verification database, or due to the customer being located outside of the USA. In these instances, we will contact you to verify your identity or age manually. To do so we will require a copy of your driver’s license, or other government-issued ID, to verify your identification.

Freshness Guarantee

 We take quality control very seriously. All the cigars we ship are shipped either in sealed boxes or, in case of single sticks and 3-packs, or 5-packs, in properly sealed bags. Most cigars in our samplers are super-premium cigars and we do everything to guarantee freshness upon arrival. All Montero Cigars orders are shipped from our state-of-the-art climate controlled warehouse in Florida. And all the cigars are hermetically packed in humidity sealed-in zip-loc with patented WATER-PILLOW packets inside the package to guarantee freshness. With that said please let me add that shipping individual cigars to the pacific north-west by GROUND service is not recommended, especially in the summer By exposing the cigars to the hot conditions in regular postal service or U.P.S. trucks we sacrifice all of the benefits described above. We strongly recommend purchasing the cigars in the ORIGINAL box that was packed and sealed at the factory, and ship cross country by AIR not by ground.
