Montecristo No. 4 Cigar - 1 Single

Date Added: Sunday 31 May, 2020 by Nick

Now it’s been a while since I started smoking and have been on the journey with Cgars from day one. On that day I purchased a starter sampler. It had everything you needed and some cigars with the monty no4 one of the figure heads. When I smoked that it had flavour. Nutty, earthy, smooth and noticeably a Montecristo. It started the journey and since then my pallet has developed as has my expectations of a decent smoke.

A lot has changed and as money is not flush given the current climate I thought I’d revisit this former love and it’s fair to say I think this is one that hasn’t stood the test of time.

I know this is a very popular cigar and so I wonder if that’s effected things. It was also less half the price when I first started so that maybe effecting my judgement but as other reviewers have said, my one didn’t really hit me with anything of note. It’s not unpleasant and should be a go to for beginners but others in the brand simply offer more. It may be a bad batch but I’d pay £3 more and take a Petit Edmundo over this any time.
