Montecristo No. 4 Cigar - 1 Single
by adrian
Being new to smoking cubans i can now see what all the postive noise about this cigar is about. Had my first one a couple of days ago and i have only good things to say. Excellent construction, good consistent eay draw and burn with generous mouthfuls of smoke. Started creamy with chocolate, then progressed to nuttiness for the remainder of the smoke. Overall an excllent intro to the world of cubans, shall always try and keep some in the humi!

Wasn't really impressed with this. There are cigars of 'lesser' brands which are just as good for far less. I found it to be a very mediocre smoke.

Montecristo No. 5 Cigar - Box of 25
by Michael
Well it's quite simply a wonderful smoke.Construction and draw perfect and burn as near perfect as makes no difference,I just had to gently touch the wrapper down one side briefly after I lost the first ash.Fantastically cool and smooth smoking experience with a growing intensity of sweet and spicy as the cigar developed.Not terribly complex as you might expect for a 40 RG but as a go to everyday smoke when there's a spare 40 minutes to kick back with then these are very well worth it.

As I am doing the rounds of tubed cigars, I highly recomend this cigar. Good flavor, not too strong. Great burn too. It lasted a hour+

Not a bad little machine-rolled cigar at all, and an everyday "supermarket standard" for me. Large enough to get a decent amount of flavour from, with consistent quality and a pretty easy draw. Not as complex a cigar as a hand-made one costing far more, but pretty decent all the same. Be aware though that if your usual fare is Henri Winterman or similar mild, small "Dutch" short-fillers, these are quite a bit stronger.
I've rated this cigar against its competitors in roughly the same price range - the likes of Winterman, Castella, Villiger etc. Against a long-filler costing somewhat more, of course I'd rate it lower; but compared to its competitors it's not bad at all.

I bought these from a supermarket and have to admit that they are very pleasant. They have a spicy taste with a very pleasant aroma, they do burn hot but this makes that spicy flavor seem infused with roast nuts and coffee. The flavor makes a pleasant change from the normal cigar, worth a try at least once!
