“Flawless. Every Montecristo I've ever smoked is dense and perfectly constructed, and the burn is always even. A little on the mild side (easily the mildest cigar in my rotation), but not lacking flavor by any means - a very smooth, even creamy smoke. Outstanding!”
“The Montecristo is one of my favorite cigars. For the price, I would have to say it's in my top 10 of favorite cigars. It has a good taste and a smooth burn all the way down. Not too strong, it is a great cigar for beginners. A Montecristo is a great, relaxing way to end an evening.”
“Been smoking the #3's (Montecristo) for years now. My favorite! The Cuban equivalent has nothing over these. Always a great taste with never a surprise. Has a nutty blend to them.”
“I ordered 10 of the churchills from a daily deal and wish that I had ordered more. (Montecristo) These are by far my favorite cigar and I have even tried the cuban montes. They are very smooth, have great taste, white ash, and an even burn. You can't beat these cigars. I'm definitely going to buy another box when I run out.”
“Just received a 10-pack of Monte churchills. What a wonderful smoke! Well constructed, a lovely draw, even burn and plumes of lush smoke! It's mild-to-medium bodied and very smooth. It's a perfect everyday smoke. I don't always need to smoke a full-body powerhouse. Highly recommended.”
“I have a problem with Brando's trashing (86 for this cigar is a trashing) of a benchmark cigar. This is one handful of the cigars all others are compared to. Yes, it doesn't have the mix of tabacco or vary from foot to nub, but no one wants to each french cuisine every night either. This is the BLT of cigars, allways tastes the same and allways hits the spot. When you are done experimenting, you can always go back to the Montecristo and get that same wholesome, reassuring, wonderful smoke. Its like a BLT and tomato soup, sometimes, it really hits the spot.”
“The No. 3 is by far my favorite cigar. Not too long, not too short, amazing flavor and always an even burn. I'd smoke them more often if I could afford too.”
“I'm in real trouble with my wife, since she is already complaining about the dollar amount I spend on cigars. After smoking a Churchill, I have to add this fantastic Montecristo to my list. It took me more than an hour to finish, and I was still wanting more. This cigar has the right amount of strength, that could be enjoyed any time of the day. While it is not mild, it is so smooth that you don't even think about the bracket it falls under. With an even burn, easy draw, huge billows of smoke, and great construction. Who could ask for anything better than this cigar.”
