Beautiful smoke! I normally prefer the chunky cigars but this one was great for a light midweek smoke. It burned with a lovely consistency and not too much of a kick. Quite mild indact. I would definitely get one if these again. I love the montecristos and this is no exception.

So my review reflects the quality of the cigar build as well as the smoke. To the latter, it looked tightly rolled but actually drew really well, the ash held all the way down and it was moslty pleasant. Actually far better than the davidoff WC traveller belicoso (which unlike every other davidoff i’ve had, was bland). So for smoke and price undoubtedly great value. However this cigar had bloomed (is that the right word) at the end like it had dried out and rehydrated. Also the wrapper is wafer thin so when smoking it cracked down the length which ruined the final half. This was due to condition on arrival and if this example had been offered in a shop i would have swapped it out, i guess thats the downside of mail order but i do feel it was obvious this example was poor quality and should have been rejected. Cant comment as to whether this is typical , but i see the boxes are being promoted so someone else can advise. My score reflects my actual experience rather than what could have been.

As others has mentioned sadly mine came split and losing its outside wrapper a little. However it was a fine smoke. The first third was a light pepper taste and fairly mild, the second third picked up the pace and brought in those leathery notes and a slightly stronger pepper, also started to get creamy smoke at this point. The final third was a medium smoke and very peppery but still felt smooth on the palette. I actually really enjoyed this cigar for the price, just a shame it was split.

Montecristo No. 4 Cigar - 1 Single

Draw was fine and the first third was a nice experience sitting in the garden with a good coffee. Burn was slightly uneven but nothing drastic. Last third got bitter and very earthy and didn’t really enjoy it so much.

Not a altogether bad smoke for the price. Biggest problem is the outer wrapper. I had one that actually disintegrated about two thirds of the way down. Some times the outer wrapper comes off when the band is removed. And some times it simply starts to unravel. They definitely need to work on this problem. On the plus side, they are cheap.

I just smoked one of these with my morning coffee.
I know Mitchell Orchant knows his cigars, so I had fairly high hopes and I have to say for the price & the size you canÂ’t go wrong here.
I bought ten for the fact they were cheap and I just wanted a once a week smoke and not to break into my DavidoffÂ’s and they are excellent! I got a good fifty mins out of one.
Good ash, even burn, excellent flavour of cedar and smooth vanilla. They go great with Guatemala coffee.
These rival some of my most expensive cigars in my opinion.
For the price, the fact theyÂ’re Mitchell OrchantÂ’s design, just an all round pleasure. IÂ’m going to get a box of twenty soon and leave them in the humidor.
5/5 from me and a great smoke.
