Date Added: Friday 03 March, 2017
There's a reason why Montecristo's have a formidable reputation when it comes to cigars. First time trying the No 2 and I'm completely sold. The draw on this was heavenly (straight cut). Burn is consistent as expected from Montecristo's. Construction flawless, and if that wasn't enough this stick produces some of the best flavours that one's palate can indulge: I got nutty and spicy notes with the last third slightly creamy. A must-try people, you will not regret it!

These has to be one of our most popular tobaccos. The flavour starts off fruty, with orange and lemon notes. The flavour starts to develop and becomes more lemoney. As you get through the second third more earhy flvaours come into play and it begins to develop a more tobacco taste. The overall blend is like a citrus flavoured tobacco. It goes really well with a small peated dram.

Padron is one of my favourite New World brands from Nicaragua. I have always enjoyed the ‘2000 Maduro’ which is aged between 2½ and 3 years. Today I enjoyed a ‘1926 Series - No 9 Maduro’ which is 5 1/4" x 56 and medium to full bodied in strength from their exclusive 1926 Series range.
Padron chose the best filler, binder and wrapper for these limited production cigars which are aged for 5 years prior to release. The cigar feels a bit dry but construction is perfect providing a generous quantity of smoke with every puff.
Begins very sweet and earthy, with tiny notes of brown sugar, honey and a hint of pepper on the palate.
The flavour develops with lovely nut, floral notes and coffee flavours with a hint of bitterness.
The cigar ends with full bodied strength, very rich and classic earthy Padron flavours and pepper.
This cigar is great and gorgeous. Probably one of the best New World cigars ever made. Perfect with a nice Flor the Cana 18 yo Rum in the afternoon.

Also forgot to mention, I agree with one of the previous reviews, it gives satisfyingly big clouds of white smoke! Feels great, highly highly recommended

What an excellent little cigar. Great flavour, perfect for a 30 minute smoke. Goes great with a good single malt. Good for friends who aren't regular smokers as it avoids the "headspin" from stronger cigars. Also great it doesn't need to be humidified, so can be stored any way.
Absolutely excellent smooth smoke at the price point.

What a great little cigar for the price!! Lovely sweet flavour on the lips all the way through but also a slight taste of leather on the palate, it was a light to mild taste for me. Never hot and ash held well. Would recommend a try to all you newbies like myself. Thanks CGars for introducing them to me. Well done again. 😀
