The Montecristo Edmundo is a classic Cuban Robusto that delivers the brand’s signature balance and refinement. From the first light, it shows why it remains a favourite among aficionados.
Construction & Burn
This cigar is beautifully made — a firm, evenly packed roll with a smooth, slightly oily wrapper and a neatly finished triple cap. The draw is generally easy and the burn stays even throughout, producing a generous, clean smoke.
Flavour Profile
The flavor starts with soft cedar and a subtle earthy tobacco base, soon joined by creamy cocoa and a hint of sweet cedar sweetness. As the cigar progresses, those early notes give way to richer tones: dark cocoa or dark chocolate, roasted coffee, and gentle baking-spice undertones. Some smokers also detect walnut, cedar, and delicate nutty or woody nuances, particularly as the smoke deepens.
Mid-way through, the smoke can offer a pleasant nuttiness or warm coffee-cedar mix, balanced by Montecristo’s hallmark smoothness.
Toward the end, subtle spice or a slightly bitter cocoa note may emerge — but it remains well-controll
