Montecristo Puritos Cigar - Pack of 5
by Graham
As a new cigar smoker I have been trying a range of cigars and it was suggested I give these a go. The first one out the pack was rubbish. It looked and tasted like an old stick, was very loose and fell to bits after a short time.
However, the rest have been really good. Nicely flavoured from start to finish and for less than £6 a pack, worth a try.
I'll give them 3 out of 5 stars because for the ever shortening lunch break they are ideal. (And at this price I don't even mind if I hand one or two out)

Great cigar! Flavours come out more after the first third I found. Also better with coffee than the Rioja I started smoking it with.

Montecristo Edmundo Cigar - Box of 25
by MATTHEW
Duncan's review tempted me to comment on the Edmundo. In my humble opinion it is one of the finest cigars Montecristo has ever produced .... but as many have already suggested it needs time to mature. Straight of a new box they give little in terms of flavour .... time in the humidor improves taste and burn dramatically and a little experimentation leads me to suggest that 20c and 70% are the magic numbers. Two years in they are fabulous ...

Montecristo Open Master Cigar - Box of 20
by MATTHEW
This is by far my favourite Robusto of 2010, consistently well made (I've had 3 boxes) with a good draw, even burn and rich flavour. Its a 30-40 minute smoke and sits well with a decent Shiraz or malt. Highly recommended.

Ok, not bad for the price but would definately go for the Guantanamera Puritos, over these any day.
