Montecristo A - 5 cigars

The flavor of these Monte's is immense. Keep in mind the sticks I had were gifted in 2008 and I did not smoke the first until 2014. With 6 years of age, the Monte A is a flavorful, smooth, creamy, nutty, buttery, cappuccino powerhouse. This profile remained consistent throughout, so I wouldn't call it complex...but I love the flavor.
Construction wise the stick was straight as an arrow, with a few veins. Nice oily, glistening wrapper. Draw was great until the final third, which, in all honesty probably began getting plugged with tar due to the length of the cigar. It put out a decent amount of smoke but nothing to write home about.
If you love the Classic Cuban Monte flavor and a HUGE stogie. Pick these up by all means, but I would suggest laying them to rest in a humidor for at least a couple years.
