Montecristo No.5

Overview: Montecristo No.5

The Montecristo No. 5 is a Perla vitola, with a modest measurement of 102mm and a 40 ring gauge. They are hand rolled and filled with the finest tobacco leaves from the Piñar del Rio region of Cuba. 

The numbered series is the founding line of cigars that launched the Montecristo brand in 1935. This range is aged for two years before being released, making them an excellent smoke right out of the box. 

The No. 5 offers a surprisingly diverse array of flavours, thick plumes of mild-medium strength smoke rushed out of this compact cigar, offering a mix of cocoa, toasted coffee bean and vanilla shaken up with spicy notes and a dash of florals.

Given the moderate size of this cigar, you can expect to enjoy it for around 30 minutes, perfect for a morning coffee or mid day break in the sun. The size of this cigar also creates the potential for it to burn hot, so do your best to puff slowly on this one.

The simple yet rich profile is approachable for the novice smoker and aficionados alike, much like it’s siblings in this range it pairs well with any beverage, so pour your favourite and enjoy this brief smoking experience.
