MONTECRISTO

Montecristo is the best known and probably the most appreciated brand of Havanas throughout the world. It forms the benchmark for many Havana smokers against which other brands are judged.

The name comes from Alexandre Dumas’ famous novel ‘The Count of Montecristo’, which was a firm favourite when read to the Torcedores (cigar rollers) at the factory where it was founded in 1935.

The original Montecristo range of sizes was composed of a narrow assortment numbered from 1 to 5. Today it consists of a wide variety of vitolas to cover every level of the cigar enthusiast’s needs.

Whether it is within the classic medium-to-full line, the lighter Open Series or the newer, more powerful, Linea 1935, Montecristo’s perfectly balanced blends are all created exclusively with selected filler and binder leaves from the Vuelta Abajo zone, home of the finest tobaccos in the world.

NO. 2

If ever one brand has come to dominate a particular vitola, this is it. The classic Piramide or 'torpedo' size. Easy burning with a controlled release of faithful montecristo flavours; many devotees look no further than this.

Tasting Notes

This is a rich and flavourful cigar and it burns very well. A bomb of rich spices including cinnamon and a pleasant sweetness emerges throughout the cigar. A great Havana among fine gauges.

----

93 / 100

"Complex and tasty, this torpedo shines with a chocolate-and-vanilla resonance from first puff to last. It’s complemented by notes of almond paste, leather and cinnamon. Balanced and delicious..."

Not sure if it's the change to BST. But something's keeping me awake. The unwritten rule I have is "if awake for an hour might as well get up". In this case also means might as well have a smoke. A lot in the humidor at the moment and I have a few options, but standing out is the lone Monte #2. It's been there a while but for some reason has remained unmolested. Shortly after relighting I am reminded why I always claim this is my favourite cigar. Lighting is easy and then it just become like the king wenceslass Carol. "clean and crisp and even" Smokes like a non fussed trooper to half way when it takes on a slightly perfumed note to the last third at which point it takes on the trade mark full Monte flavour and really starts to sing. Make no mistake this is a king of all cigars. To put it in context, there are ten cohiba esplendidos in the humidor at the moment and this is better than any of them.

There's a reason why Montecristo's have a formidable reputation when it comes to cigars. First time trying the No 2 and I'm completely sold. The draw on this was heavenly (straight cut). Burn is consistent as expected from Montecristo's. Construction flawless, and if that wasn't enough this stick produces some of the best flavours that one's palate can indulge: I got nutty and spicy notes with the last third slightly creamy. A must-try people, you will not regret it!

Quite simply one of THE best CUBAN CIGARS out there! Smoke coats your pallet with various flavours, a smooth but peppery bite on the finish. I could go another right now, honestly will buy more before the years out!

A real palate cleanser. First third, juicy apples, chewing gum and lemon curd. Second third, salt and pepper. Last third, nothing but clean smoke. Uncomplicated. Simples!
