Reviews for Montecristo No. 5 Cigar - 1 Single

A nice cigar but was a little bitter at times unfortunately. Maybe not mellow enough for me?! written by cmr, uk

Not too long, not too short. Not too fat, not too thin. I can only agree with the previous reviewer in saying that these must be about the best value for money quality cigars on the market. Construction and burn are first class as you would expect from Davidof. Plenty of flavour without being overpowering. They do benefit from a few weeks in the humidor though. All in all these have become my new go to, cigars.

Id like to start by stating that Condor long cut is one of my favourite pipe tobaccos, but this is a different kettle of fish entirely. Whilst the long cut is a lovely taste of tobacco, this is a very floral and soapy taste. I really did not enjoy this tobacco. To the point where I didnt even come close to finishing half of the bowl. Not recommended.

The wrapper on this cigar is simply gorgeous. Theres a wonderfully oily sheen to this well constructed smoke. It burns and draws well, with medium- to full-bodied flavors of chocolate, vanilla, coffee and cocoa bean. A truely delightful cigar! written by Michael

Having smoked almost only Havanas for many years, I decided to expand my tasting and knowledge of other cigar producing countries when I set up my account with Cgars Ltd. This particular cigar is undoubtedly one of my favourite smokes; it is an absolute gem. I found it of medium strength but with a lot of character and a good, satisfying, longish smoke. Dont be fooled by its size - this will keep you satisfied for 35-40 minutes and is a beautifully tight pack within the wrapper. I was able to smoke this down almost to the nub without ash fall!!! A great discovery - thank you for bringing it to the market here in the UK.
