Im relatively new to cigar smoking and have limited experience (so please frame any opinion around this). I have been buying Montecristo Petit Tubos which are definitely my favourite cigar so far, but wanted something a little bit cheaper. I have to say that the first cigar picked randomly from the box the day it arrived was a little dry (had a slight cracking sound in the outer casing when rolling in fingers) and I found the smoke a little disappointing... Moving onto today, I checked the rest of my box and found them all to be in perfect condition so must have had just a fluke. The cigar I tried today was much, much better with a woody flavour that reminded me of oak, slower burn and amazed how the ash just wouldnt drop. Compared to the Montecristos they are a bit stronger and not quite so sweet to my palate. Ive just invested in a humidor from C.Gars Ltd and intending to put it to good use. Can see these remaining in there as a regular smoke to turn to in between special treats.

I didn’t find these cigars very good at all, very generic taste with no real characteristics.

First and foremost this is a beautiful looking cigar. The wrapper is flawless and the construction is immaculate. However the taste is not to my liking, heavy cedar and pepper notes that evolve into a harsh raw tobacco and leather taste. Perhaps I prefer Cigars of the more mellow variety but this stick really made me wait between draws, to the point that I considered nubbing it out several times because I really wasnt enjoying it but non the less I persevered. All in all, great appearance but severly lacking in the taste department.

Montecristo No. 3 Cigar - 1 Single

Very poor. Wrapper split after the first third and the cigar began to expand as I smoked it down. After the second third the wrapper almost entirely fell off held only by the cap.

Excellent cigar. Creamy, Nutty notes with a perfect burn and perfect draw.

Montecristo No. 5 Cigar - 1 Single

First third wasnt to my taste as it was quite peppery , second third had grassy and leathery notes, final third quite pleasant with mellow nutty notes. Burnt well, Ash held up very well, last around 30 mins. All in all, not to my taste but certainly not a bad cigar.
