Montecristo Double Edmundo Cigar - 1 Single
by Matthew
I bought a 3 pack of these cigars and have learnt some important lessons. All 3 were tight draws. And I took the first 2 on holiday to Maderia where the temperature was hotter than the UK. Lesson 1 was heat increases the moisture and relative humidity in the stick and can ruin a good cigar making the flavour harsh. Lesson 2, a plugged stick can prevent oxygen igniting all the tobacco in the stick and making it a harsh smoke. Lesson 3 both these problems are not problems with the cigar and both can be remedied. The last stick I kept in a zip lock bag for a couple months with a 69% RH boveda and smoked it on new years day 2023. I unplugged the cigar with the PerfectDraw tool they sell on here under accessories. The result was an excellent smoke and overall burn time over 2 hours but about 1hour 45 of this was the excellent characteristic creamy and spicy Montecristo smoke. An excellent cigar and fitting smoke to welcome in New Years Day 2023!! How you keep your cigars is of paramount importance. Happy New Year All. Cheers

First time with one of these reputed sticks.
A nice long smoke. Has to be smoked slowly.
Very nice. Lovely flavour. Smoother than a Cappuccino. Some may think they are a Punchy price for a single but Not overpriced for the quality. Looking forward to the next one!

Not a nice cigar at all. Poor construction led to uneven burn. Many corrections needed. Flavour is that of cheap supermarket cigars. Loose draw means you get plenty of smoke but with no depth of flavour this isnt welcome. Put it out after 2nd third.

Stick arrived as part of a sample pack. Was already unravelling and had a hole an inch down from the foot.. which looks suspiciously like a repair has been attempted. Given that this was a sample pack seems impossible cgars would miss that this is damaged.
Still smokable using the band to hold the wrapper down and smoking past the hole but you wouldnt accept a corked £20 bottle of wine so why send me a damaged £20 cigar?

Montecristo Edmundo Cigar - 1 Single

Burn time circa 1hour 15 mins. Montecristo is one of my favourite Cuban blends. I decided to pick this from the humidor to celebrate a promotion at work and a job well done. This lifted the spirit on a cold dark wet winters afternoon and delivered a easy going, smooth, sophisticated slightly creamy and medium bodied smoke. It was so easy to smoke the time went by in a flash. Paired this with Bushmills 10 and was a great combination and got me in the festive spirit.
