The Menendez Social site states:

His grandfather, father, uncles and great uncles were considered the royalty of the cigar business during the pre-revolution heyday of Cuban cigars, having developed world-class puros including Montecristo, H. Upmann and Por Larrañaga.

I first had the BM Series at the Benji Menendez Social in New York City. I have had a couple more since then.
