Just smoked this amazing vitola. It is the last of the 4 vitolas I had for this blend and this is the stand out in my opinion. Cigar aficionado have the torpedo a 96 along with cigar of the year honours and whilst I did find that vitola to be magnificent, this was the true stand out in my humble opinion
Medium body, perfect draw and construction with a tight burn the whole way. An absolute flavour bomb all the way, I got 2 hours burn time. My palate is certainly not as refined as many who enjoy cigars but I detected Pepper, hay, leather, coffee and caramel.
If you do have a refined palate I would love to hear what you think about this stick. The only ones I have enjoyed more are fuente ‘eye of the shark’ and the 7” padron 1964

Montecristo Open Master Tubed Cigar - Pack of 3
by Benjamin
Exceptional cigar. Don’t ask me for flowery language or flavour descriptions because I don’t have it in my locker. What I do know is I’d recommend you buy some of these because they’re a great smoke.

Writing this review whilst smoking the last of 3 since the lockdown. Its settled down after the light. The burn hasnt been prefect but nothing that didnt self correct, slowing down helped I think and its also let the coffee cool down too. Its one of those scorching hot days weve been having so I wasnt that sure a hot coffee and a cigar were called for. Silly. Its a no2 and it smokes cool with a light smoke and smooth but certain draw. The cedar, pepper, spice are all perfectly balanced with no one aroma overpowering the others. Its hard to know where the coffee ends and the cigar starts. The garden pairties are tuned out of focus and there is relaxation.

Montecristo No. 5 Cigar - 1 Single
by Andrew
Very disappointed with this one, but its a learning curve to a new smoker. The draw on this was FAR too tight to get any flavour profiles, occasionally I had a hint of what it had to offer, but unfortunately this was marred by the tightness and lack of smoke. This was a real shame, especially for 11 pounds, as the little hints of flavour were very enjoyable. But at least I know to avoid it in the future.

Montecristo Open J Cigar - 1 Single
by David
Quite mild and smooth with subtle flavours consistent throughout. An enjoyable 30-35 minute afternoon smoke that was perfectly paired with a cup of El Salvador light roast ground coffee.

Really disappointed and embarrassed to give this to my friend for his birthday to fall apart and barely able to take a decent draw
Am hoping this is just a one off but puts me off ordering another
