Honest review, very good well balanced cigar , I’m not into flavour none sense, leather notes vanilla and earthy, it tastes like a cigar, I’m not a wine connoisseur but I know wine I like , this is a good honest little cigar that tastes like a cigar
It’s affordable and honest , I wish I had the same pallet as some reviewers obviously wine buffs as well, but if you just want a nice decent smoke for little money this will do the job, I just smoke em and if they taste good all the better, enjoy the cigar stop beating yourself up about vanilla and leather etc ... smoke and enjoy
This is a good un

I’ve read the reviews about this cigar and couldn’t wait to try it. I must concur with others, it was very enjoyable. Smooth with sweet, creamy smoke. Medium in strength. Lasts for an hour.
It has a sweet tasting crown. Definitely worth a 4 out 5.
Not an every day smoke but definitely one for occasional change.

This was a little powerhouse of a cigar, right from the start the strong flavours hit you, I loved it! After the halfway stage it gets a little harsh but still very enjoyable.
I recommend this if you like a strong 20 minute smoke, excellent value too.

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.

I should first state that I recieved this as a substitution for another cigar I ordered- this isnt a complaint about that by any means; I really cant fault CGars ltds excellent service.
I know that a lot of people like these, but my own experience of this stick wasnt a good one. Your mileage may vary, of course, but these are my thoughts: First of all, it smells (to me at least) as if its been marinated in aftershave-though not too strongly; in fact I found the smell quite pleasant and was looking forward to trying it. When I came to smoke it, however, I was put off almost instantly. The wrapper has a sickly artificially sweet taste to it, and the taste of the cigar itself was a very strong sandlewood- one that I really felt overpowered any subtleties that the tobacco blend itself might have had.

Sorry but I cant agree with the other reviews here. The burn was very uneven and I had to re-light twice. The flavour for me was quite harsh and one dimensional throughout. In the final third the wrapper split open and I had to abandon all hope with this one.
