Montecristo

Classic

Prelight was pleasant, though nothing special. Physically, the cigar is firm to the touch, but gives slightly. No soft spots. Essentially, the construction seems like it's good. I kept it 4 months in the humidor and gave it a 5 hour dry boxing to prepare it for the smoke. That's the last good thing I have to say about this cigar. Trying to get this cigar lit was nothing less than a fight. What I discovered about 1 and 1/2 inches into the cigar is that there was a center core that was not burning properly, and this was causing an uncontrollable runner. Every puff was Char. If you like to suck on charcoal, this cigar may be for you. To me, this cigar is garbage. Early discard. I will not be buying any more.

Very light draw through out. Didn't burn well. Flavor was good when lit and after puffing a few times.

Morning smoke with coffee. First third was missing something, maybe just too mild overall. Would have liked a but more complex flavor, but strength was near perfect for morning and matched with my coffee well. Lit well initially but tried to go out multiple times when resting.

Nice mellow cigar. Burn was great. Not complex but light.

I may would buy this again, but I couldn't get it to burn well, so I can't really give a fair assessment. Update: wasn't a bad smoke. I would get it again. The wrapper was a little brittle, but the draw was great. Flavor was ok, not great.

Very nice smoke. New favorite.

Wouldn’t stay lit. Had a funky flavor. I smoked this one the day I bought it. Probably just a dud.

Very mellow but enjoyable. Mine had a particularly tight draw.

Draw started off exceptionally tight. The flavor did not come into its own until shortly before the end of the first third, when the draw open to what I would consider normal.

Excellent burn. Perfect. Nice cigar on a perfect afternoon. Definitely would buy again. Good taste w an effortless draw.

Dried out despite being sealed. Wrapper eventually came off before last third. Average flavor

Draw was tough, taste was great.

Great cigar while grilling outside. Was a little hard to draw throughout.

First cigar I really liked, very light, very quality tobacco flavor. When I have more experience for flavor I'll come back and update my review

Draw was way too tight which definitely effected the burn.

About as close to a Cuban Montecristo as I've had.

Classic is a good name. Slight leather flavor mixed with tobacco.
