Popular Post bigbwalls Posted October 26, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted October 26, 2019 Monte PE - April 17 A surprisingly warm, yet cloudy fall day in north central PA. Perfect weather for a hoodie and cigar. This dark PE is full of spice, graham cracker, white pepper and cocoa. I’m glad I still have about half a box left. 20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post JohnS Posted October 26, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted October 26, 2019 Montecristo Dumas UEB Mar 2018 In case you missed it, the new Linea 1935 addition to the Montecristo brand is aimed at emulating the addition of the Linea Behike to Cohiba in 2010. In other words, three cigars that are premium-priced and classy. They are a blend of the full flavour of a classic line Montecristo cigar with the medium-flavoured Open series. Some of you may say 'bland-flavoured' Open Series. I think in essence what Habanos S.A. is trying to say is that the Linea 1935 series consists of three cigars aimed at being 'full of flavour' rather than strength in terms of a nicotine. The Dumas is named after the author of the classic novel, 'The Count of Monte Cristo', Alexandre Dumas. Incidentally, in case you are curious, the Maltes is named after one of the main character's aliases in the novel, the Maltese Sailor, after he is rescued by smugglers and Leyenda means 'legend' in Spanish. It's the smallest of the three cigars, around the same length as a Montecristo No.4, but 7/64th inches larger in diameter. It's a little stronger than the Leyenda, but that's to be expected for a smaller cigar. I found it consistently around medium. My previous Dumas had a 'fullness of flavour' which coated my palate throughout, it was indeed a 'classy' smoke. This Dumas, smoked six months later, was nothing like that at all. It had plenty of flavour in the first few draws and smoke output per puff was intense, but it was just too strong, almost like the ligero leaf in this was blended incorrectly and gave off too much flavour, spice and strength. At other times, this Dumas went out and I had to consistently re-light. To compensate for the strong flavours at the beginning, I had to smoke slowly and with small puffs. At times the flavour was bland, at other times I got a little cocoa, biscuit, cream and marshmallow. To say I was disappointed with this is an understatement. Still, I have a Maltes to try soon and I am hopeful that it at least it won't leave me as discontented as this Dumas did today. 18 1 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My thoughts on it were pretty much in line with yours. I bought 2 boxes, but i think I am going to eventually sell or trade the unopened box. On the bright side, the Maltes is a very nice cigar. I think the particular blend they used, is more suited to the larger ring gauges of the Maltes and Leyenda, which are more flavorful, yet more mellow at the same time. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
