Product Description
The Montecristo No. 5, 40 x 102 mm, is one amazing smoke. Being shorter than other Montecristo doesn’t alter its strength or its construction. The draw is perfect, the burn is even and it is surprisingly smooth.
It never gets too hot or too strong. As the cigar goes along, woody and earthy aromas become more substantial, and so do the sweet and spicy aromas. The final third is quite strong. It is not the most complex cigar, but if you are looking a great everyday cigar, then look no more; this minuto requires about 1 hour if you smoke in a relaxed way.
The taste of this little one is almost like his bigger brothers.Full of flavor and very spicy yet creamy.It also has a very earthy taste. It’s a heavy cigar but never becomes unpleasant.Punchy and at the same time full of delicate floral notes and hints of vanilla, the No.5 has an underlying bitterness which is pleasantly reminiscent of cedar wood, which gives depth to the smoke. Very similar to the Montecristo No.4, the No. 5 is more direct and will burn faster giving the impression that it is a stronger cigar. A solid earthiness dominates this minuto with some pleasant woody, floral and spicy notes. A nervous finale.

Montecristo no 5
Very disappointing. For a cigar of Montecristo quality this was a great disappointment. Most of the cigars are filled so tight that it is impossible to get a draw going. Only way is to cut the cigars in half and even then it does not always produce a result. Don't know if this was just a dud batch, but I for one will not purchase it again...

Montecristo no 5
Love the brand, they have a beautiful smooth smoke. No 5 is just the right size for a short enjoyable puff. Service from Cigars.co.za was outstanding.

No more #5
A disappointing smoke - looked so forward to moving out from dry cigars. Hard draw, hot and difficult smoke. Sadly, not going back for more.

Really good just after Christmas
It’s a nice smooth 40 to 50 min smoke with a nice whiskey, I give it 5 star for such a small stogie

Excellent quality!
It tastes exactly as described on the website, packaging was absolutely gorgeous and delivery couldn’t have gone smoother. A great gift to my brother and his groomsmen on the day of his wedding.

A big cigar enjoyment in a smaller package. No rough ends, good from start to finish.
