Montecristo No. 5 Cigar - 1 Single

Date Added: Friday 19 June, 2020 by Adam

Im a relative novice and this is my first review of my 5th cigar. Really tried to take my time with it after reading some articles about enhancing enjoyment and it paid off. First third was lovely and gave me toasted nutty flavours and a hint of vanilla. I paired it with a 12 year old Aberlour which made it quite sweet on my palate in the middle third. I may have been going a bit too slow as it went out just before the band and was quite bitter for the first draw after relighting. Last 3rd was quite grassy with hints of hay and and tangy on the tongue. This has been my favourite so far and gave me 35 minutes of enjoyment.
The products arrived promptly and in pristine condition after ordering.
