Smoking a Montecristo No 5
This stick is well constructed with a slight sheen on the smooth Colorado wrapper and an evenly bunched foot.
Before lighting up, a Montecristo No 5 smells sweet with hints of hay and cocoa. Some call the No 5 a perfect burn and even draw, although the trick is not to smoke this stick too fast, so it doesn’t get hot.
The first third offers a sweet taste with light notes of baking spice. Fresh cream seeps in towards the end of the first third. During the second third the spice notes linger, but creaminess and coffee flavors predominate.
In the final third, a pleasant musk mingles with leather and burnt toast aromas—all in all, a satisfying, medium-bodied smoke that takes around 40 minutes to finish.

One of the original Montecristos, the Montecristo No 5 is smaller than Nos. 1 through 4. However, this petit cigar packs a mighty punch, offering a firm draw and hints of cinnamon and graham cracker overlaid with creamy nougat and an almond finish.
A Montecristo No 5 has bold flavors yet there’s also a lightness to the smoking experience. And it is great value given its price.
Montecristo No 5 Overview
The Perla format Montecristo No 5 is a small gem of a cigar that packs a lot of flavor in a tiny package. With a 40 ring gauge and just 4” long, it is shorter than other Montecristo choices but can stand up to the rest of the Montecristo lineup in terms of flavor profile.

this is a short smoke at 4 inches and 40 ring gauge its similar to the cohiba siglo 1. This is a little heavier than the montecristo no. 4, but its still a nice smoke. The only problem I've noticed with montecristo's is that they tend to be plugged quite a lot. Lucky for me i have a perfect draw tool so its not too much bother. never the less a nice smoke for 20-30 mins.Response from store Thanks for your feedback.

My order was received incredibly fast. Previous orders, through unnamed companies, took months to arrive, but this was only around 2 weeks (give or take a few days) to the States. Will definitely order again. Another sign they care was the packaging of the cigars. Not one damaged stick - cannot wait to smoke them after they relax. Thank you again and keep up the good workResponse from store Thanks for your comments. We really appreciate your opinion.
