"Not worth the money"
Purchased a 5 pk. First 2 were good but not the flavor profile I prefer. 3rd rolled tight dificult draw. 4th rolled with a big stem in the end. This thing was 1/8 inch square. No wonder it was so difficult to cut. Well I have 1 more but 4 tell the story. Save your money. 2 times what they are worth. At 3 bucks it s ok at 9 bucks it is insulting.

"A mild cigar with excellent draw and great taste."
I ve been purchasing these for years. Occasionally there will be a few cigars in the box with a restricted draw, but very infrequently. The taste, aroma and excellent burn make this my go to cigar.

"Quality has deteriorated greatly"
This use to be a great and consistent cigar. The last 2 boxes were terrible. They are rolled too tight and they are over humidified. No draw! Will not smoke. I am stunned that they have let the quality deteriorate so much.

"90"
An excellent smoke. About one hour of total relaxation with an even burn and great draw. For the price of this stick, you should expect a great smoke and it doesn t disappoint. The only problem that I had as did my friend who split the box is that the cigar would go out consistently about 4 inches from the end of the cigar. Once you light it again, it burns perfectly to the end. An odd but reoccurring event. Because of this problem, I had to rate the burn and the construction slightly lower. The rest of the cigar is excellent and I can put up with this small imperfection for a great smoke, even though I wish I didn t have to!

"Great Stick"
Another great cigar. Medium to mild, smooth consistent burn makes this another winner. I usually prefer a 48-50 ring size, so I was skeptical at first. The wrapper is the highlight, the long even even burning ash shows quality and the taste is montecristo at its finest .

"My go-to cigar in times of celebration"
Whenever someone asks me for a cigar recommendation, this is the one I give them. It's what you hope smoking a cigar will taste like when you first start. Can't speak highly enough about this one.

"Dry smoke, impacted center"
Hard to start, the Montecristo stayed intact to the middle then burst mid-smoke. Had a lack of flavor, consider this one dry.

"Not For Me"
You know when it comes right down to it a great cigar is what you like.Monte's in my opinion have lost something over the years.There are a lot better cigars out there today for less money too.They are constructed well but the taste is lacking.I would take a Perdoma over a Monte anyday.but like I said it depends on what YOU like.
