Montecristo No. 4 Cigar - 1 Single by Marco

Delicious flavour. Complex enough to be interesting but not off-putting to a newbie. Excellent burn. Barely any ashy or peppery flavours until right near the end.

Montecristo Open Regata Cigar - 1 Single (Best Dad Band) by Luke

Very disappointing for the price. I bought this to celebrate my daughter being born. The draw was difficult so I had to snip off a bit more than what I started with. The burn was a bit uneven and not as attractive as other similar priced cigars. There was a really hard block of ash in the middle towards the end so I dont know what that was or if that had anything to do with my bad experience. Taste was bland but ok. Maybe a one off looking at the other reviews but I wont be buying this brand again.

Montecristo Petit No. 2 Cigar - 1 Single by Chris

My first impressions of this cigar are quite good: Construction was solid, burn was even, draw was open and I could puff away at a slow pace without it going out on me. As far as the flavours were concerned it had that classic Cuban profile and the unmistakable Montecristo flavours, although it wasnt quite as full on as the regular No. 2. Very creamy from start to finish with very mild hints of spice and almonds although I agree with the review from Scott that the cigar actually seems to get blander as it progressed. In my limited experience most cigars start to wake up in the second or final third but not so with the Petit No. 2. This isnt necessarily a bad thing since the flavours were very enjoyable, but it did leave me feeling like I wanted a little bit more out of the cigar. I think the smoking time of 30-45 minutes is pretty accurate provided youre the kind of person who will smoke down to the nub and doesnt mind the smoke getting a little hot. While it was an enjoyable 45 minute smoke, the fact that the cigar didnt really seem to develop beyond the first light loses it poi

Montecristo Open Eagle Cigar - Box of 20 by Peter

Really lovely smoke. Not really much else to be said other than get a box, try one and if you don’t like it, send the rest of the box to me!

Meharis by Agio Red Orient Cigar - Pack of 10 by Johns

The wrapper before you smoke it is very sweet tasting but is almost artificial (too damn sweet). The smoke is quite bitter and nothing like what the wrapper smells or tastes like. But its quite good considering the price (seriously its cheap) and how short and thin it is. Good for those who dont have time for a 20-40 cigar sesh. Smokes for about 5 minutes. Dont try and smoke it too quickly it will burn your lips (I did this once when i was in a rush😅)

My Father Flor De Las Antillas - Belicoso Cigar - 1 Single by Thomas

This cigar was great. During the first third I had a bit of a wonky burn, but after a quick correction it burnt beautifully right up until the nub. The ash held incredibly well which is a testament to its construction. As for tasting notes I had, earthy, leathery and slight peppery tones right up until the last third where sweet dark chocolatey molasses took over. The reason I am only giving it 4 out of 5 stars is, in my taste, it was more full bodied than medium as described. But that is just my taste and should take nothing from the cigar itself.
