MONTECRISTO

Montecristo is the best known and probably the most appreciated brand of Havanas throughout the world. It forms the benchmark for many Havana smokers against which other brands are judged.

The name comes from Alexandre Dumas’ famous novel ‘The Count of Montecristo’, which was a firm favourite when read to the Torcedores (cigar rollers) at the factory where it was founded in 1935.

The original Montecristo range of sizes was composed of a narrow assortment numbered from 1 to 5. Today it consists of a wide variety of vitolas to cover every level of the cigar enthusiast’s needs.

Whether it is within the classic medium-to-full line, the lighter Open Series or the newer, more powerful, Linea 1935, Montecristo’s perfectly balanced blends are all created exclusively with selected filler and binder leaves from the Vuelta Abajo zone, home of the finest tobaccos in the world.

OPEN MASTER

The open series creased space for a Robusto size in Montecristo's illustrious line-up. A delightful medium bodied cigar in this popular shape and sporting the all important fleur-de-lys on its band.

Tasting Notes

90 / 100

"The smoke of this robusto has a chewy texture that imparts some bready notes calling to mind oyster crackers, as well as wood, peanut and earth. The draw is open and lush..."

Very enjoyable cigar. Great draw but did not produce a lot of smoke which I missed. Good flavours, definitely only mesium strength (which is a good thing for me). Not sure I would buy again only down to price

Pre light draw seemed good however once it had been lit didnt seem to draw much smoke at all. Constant battle to keep it lit and a very uneven burn with a poor ash hold. Kept in humidor at RH 70% other cigars smoke well. It may just be a rogue cigar, would try again if gifted but dont think I shall be buying again unfortunately. Better robustos out there.

Firstly, I would like ot say thankyou to Mitchell Orchant for recommending this cigar as I found it to be one of the most complex smokes I think I have ever had. I can only describe it as being similar to a fine sauce; after the initial 1/2 inch, which to my ageing palate, was quite spicy and peppery, the rest of the cigar carried a depth of flavour surrounded by other more subtle flavours. It is the first time I have picked up on what others say of coffee and caramel undertones. If you like a fuller but not overpowering flavour throughout your cigar, I would highly recommend this one. Its one of those that I will ensure is always in my humidor from now on.

As a newbie to cigar smoking (only tried about a dozen), this is probably my favourite. Ill be ordering more.

It looked good enough, well made and smelt pretty good. The first third was less smokey than I would have liked but drew well. Predominantly woody notes with a very slight peppery taste. Second third had much better smoke but still oak and cedar notes came through. The final third had slightly more pepper but the woody notes remain the main feature of this cigar. The burn was very uneven which I was a bit disappointed with, burning a V down one side until the final third where it side burned but the ash held up nicely. Very one dimensional but not an effort to smoke. I wouldnt buy a box but one or two in the humidor wouldnt go amiss. Rather light for a Montecristo but I guess that was the idea with this run. I chose to punch mine, I believe a V cut would have been a better choice. Not a bad cigar, but not a great cigar. One for the Golf course. Lasted a good 45-50mins. Worth a try!
