Question Dunhill Brands of the 90's?

What happened to Montesino, Monte Cruz, Tempe Hall... all the brands that were sold in Dunhill stores (USA), but I don't see much talk of now?

Are they still around?

I have seen Montesino cigars around, but I am unsure if they are made by Dunhill? I thought Montesino was made by Newman/Fuente...?

The Montesino line is now a Fuente product (maybe then too?), haven't had one in a while but I don't remember it being bad, but don't really remember it being all that good either. but don't take my word for it. The other 2 I've never had

Temple Hall is available at JR's now. I think they were bought out a few years ago.

I am not saying Dunhill owned these brands by any means, but rather they sold these brands at their stores. The also sold Partagas and of course Dunhill too. They also sold Henry Clay, Royal Jamaican...

I never thought much of many of their cigars either at the time, but that was when I just started getting into cigars.

The Boston store closed a long time ago, and haven't been to another Dunhill boutique since.

The only Montesino I ever remember liking was the Sun Grown wrapped Pyramid.
