Montecristo No. 4 Cigar - 1 Single
by Morgan
The perfect introduction to Cuban Cigars
The Montecristo No.4 is one of the best selling cigars in the world, and for good reason. The catalyst for beginning a lifetime obsession with cigars for many, at the price point (currently around £20), you’d be hard pressed to find a better value Cuban in this vitola.
If anyone looking to try cigars for the first time comes to me asking for a recommendation, this will always be my first choice for them, almost always well constructed, with an impressively wide ranging flavour throughout the burn, without being full bodied. For me, Montecristo are the jewel in the crown of Cuban cigars, and the No.4 is the standard that all others should measure themselves against

Totally unique flavour
First taste of a Filipino tobacco-based cigar and it was truly unlike anything I’ve tried before
As a half corona, this stick is never going to, and doesn’t even have the time to set your world alight, but with the price point and depth of flavour considered, this is fantastic value for money
Highly recommend

Wow can this cigar hold its ash! I managed to get almost halfway through before the first ash fell, now I know it’s never a certainty, but this told me all I need to know about just how well made Plasencia Cigars are produced.
I don’t claim to be able to decipher any tasting notes so all I’ll say is that this stick has plenty of smoke, a smooth draw and easy on the palate. As my first dip into the Plasencia Brand I was neither smitten or put off, would I buy this stick again, probably not, but does it make me want to explore their range? Absolutely!
Worth the try!

First third was quite bitter, second I picked up chocolate notes and the third was pepper. A good, consistent smoke. Early on in my cigar journey but I will definitely buy again.

A bit bland, paired it with a coffee for a late night smoke at the fire pit. No real flavour came through. Nice burn, decent aroma and the second half was fine, but just fine. Given that I only smoke once a week, it left me disappointed. You get what you pay for. Mid table obscurity.

Overall a very nice product and would recommend. Burns very well and has nice draw and you can definitely taste the cherry - can be a bit overpowering at times and a bit sickly-sweet but definitely a good afternoon smoke in the garden
