Montecristo Casino Iii Cigar Review

The Montecristo No 3 is a classic Cuban full-length Corona, providing superbly consistent rich flavour and smoking progression, along with good cigar strength. More flavourful than refined, this satisfying stick is sadly at a price disadvantage versus its best-selling but less consistent little sister, the Montecristo No 4. The cigars for this assessment were samples from Altadis U.S.A., so we cannot confirm if this was from the trunk labeled “#1 of 250” or not. Preparation for the Cigar Experience. Prior to lighting up the Montecristo Grupo de Maestros Private Batch III, I removed the cedar sleeve that covered the cigar. The secondary band is where the cigar states that this isn’t a typical Montecristo. It has “Monte” written in large curved letters across it. This lower band has a dark black background which is a nice contrast with red lettering that really makes that Monte pop out at you.

This medium-bodied blend utilizes the finest Dominican filler and binders along with a super-high grade Connecticut Shade wrapper. When you bear the most iconic brand in the world, you must live up to its standard. Montecristo Platinum Casino III Robusto - Straight out of Vegas and into your humidor!

Second Third – Cream and cedar really hit the palate followed by that sweet caramel finish. Great mild smoke so far! The burn remains pristine and ash falls at the 2.25-inch mark.

Final Third – The woody cedar notes carry this one home along with that consistent caramel finish that had held on through the entire smoke. The burn remains pristine.

Overall Experience:

This Montecristo Classic Series is a solid classic smoke that is just right when you’re looking for a more mild experience. The caramel in this is a real beautiful consistent flavor throughout the entire smoke that you just can’t get enough of.
