MONTECRISTO #4

Habanos

5 X 42


Brethren,

I was looking for something quick to smoke and I came across this beautiful Monte #4.  To be honest, I'm not really sure where I got this stick or how long Ive had it.  Its always nice stumbling upon a gem like this one.  This cigar was in great shape.  It had a good feel in the hand, firm, with a beautiful light brown color to it.  Montecristo is the best selling Cuban cigar on the market and with good reason.  I enjoy the Monte #2 when I have some time to relax, but in a pinch the Monte #4 is a great choice.  Enough of this babel as I set fire to foot.

First few puffs are mild to medium in strength with a sweet cappuccino flavor.  What's great about Monte's are they never overpower.  This can be a morning or after dinner cigar.  As I progress into this cigar the flavor picks up a bit without changing strength.  I get wood accompanying the cappuccino flavors.  

As I smoke through this beauty the burn stays sharp and the flavor never wavers.  I would recommend this particular cigar to anyone, especially someone new to Cubans.  Its a shame the cigar is so short, but that's also what is great about this size.  It allows you to enjoy the classic Monte flavor in a very short amount of time.

Enjoy the pics

One of my favorites.  The corona size just seems to work well.
