I bought 5 of these in a tin. The first that I smoked had a grassy chemically taste, presumably from the tin. After a month in the humidor the flavour is now smooth, woody and nutty. A huge difference from my first impression. Really enjoyable! I can't wait to try more from Montecristo.
It looks great with the logo wrapper. I was hoping I'd found a bargain here but the leaf unfurled quickly and I was peeling away an ever decreasing width. No flavour. Stubbed it out half way and the whole thing disintegrated.
I bought this as a cheaper, quick smoke, and try a non cubian. I was so pleasant suprised, that I have reorder more. For the money, I don't think you could find a better smoke!
A lovely cigar, and one of my favorites, smooth and fully of flavor, and not over powering. However a very tight draw, which tends to reduce the enjoyment
