Popular Post Connoisseur Kim Posted January 9, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted January 9, 2019 This Petit Corona is one of the bestselling Cuban cigars in the world according to the Habanos S.A. It is also one of the Che Guevara's go to cigars who was known for involving Cuban Revolution with Fidel Castro. As soon as I cut the cap of the cigar, I can already see the noticeable pleasant flavour from the pre-draw which is not usually present on young cigars other than aged sticks. The flavours are consisted of strong coffee, cocoa, nut, tobacco followed by cream, leather, spice and bitter chocolate with some earthy note. Then, the complexity and cedar scent are added from the middle of cigar and goes smoothly without harshness till the end. I am really impressed with the greatness of aged cigars and can see why it is strongly recommended for beginners. -Mr. Knight Brand: Montecristo Size: 42 x 129 (Petit Corona) Country: Cuba Box Code: AEM MAY 14 Price: Received as a gift from our member, Raskol (ndchow) Score: 94 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has been more than 2 years for reviewing cigars since 20 ?! I thought Montecristo No. 4 would be meh since it is being panned quite a lot by our members like D4 but tasted really great! Now Montecristo is one of my favourite marcas since then ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeinKS Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 What was the age on your stick? A box of Monte #4's was my first order here a few months back. I love them, but the wrappers have a lot of wonderful oil to them. I feel like I should put what I have left away for awhile. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I have dozens of these boxes, I will do the same too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cleelv Posted June 26, 2020 Share Posted June 26, 2020 Great review! The Monte #4s were the first box of Cuban cigars I bought back in 2015 with a box code of OLE MAY 14. Down to two left from that box but have to say that it's infinitely better with age and a solid short-ish smoke. Fortunately was able to pick up an aged box from 5y16 last year so looking forward to enjoying these for years to come. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's one of the cheap and cheerful CCs that I'd like to stock more of these! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
