Review #48:     Have had a few of these in my box for about six months and finally smoked one this weekend. What a beautiful cigar! Wrapper absolutely silky. Construction was near perfect. Prelight draw was smooth with indications of cream and spice to come. Burn was very even. Draw started somewhat firm, but soon relaxed to easy, but not loose. Taste was magnificiant from the beginning with the typical Montecristo bitterness. Plenty of creamy, spicy smoke and a taste that became more and more intense, but never was harsh or overpowering. An absolute winner and an hour and 45 minutes well spent. - Submitted by McSmoke on September 19, 2005
Review #47:     This cigar is indeed going to become a classic. In my opinion, it is one of the best (if not the best) new cigars produced in habana. As previously noted, when over 6 months old it smokes wonderfully well, perfect burn, lots of smoke in every puff. Its never a strong cigar, but surely very flavourfull, with a distinctive Montecristo caracter. It is far more complex than other cigars from the same marca (maybe a little more than the no. 2). Pure habanos heaven. - Submitted by Estrella on September 16, 2005
Review #46:     I am sorry but the last review really doesn\'t sound like a genuine Edmundo to me, the quote \"it was like smoking air with tobacco flavour\"? Mild?? No finish??? The Monte Edmundo is supremely rich and full flavoured with mouthfuls of creamy, tangy smoke. Complexity is wonderful after 6 months plus of rest: Lot\'s of chocolate, vanillas, beans and vegetal with classic Monte bitter sweet tang, and plenty of it! Smokes to the nub well and gives a medium to long, rich finish. Can be a little salty and poor burn if not left to rest for at least 6 months, but I found these mature quickly, though mine are kept in my walk-in. Very very tasty! - Submitted by MeGustaLosHabanos on August 6, 2005
Review #45:     I reviewed this last year and I couldn\'t smoke it because it was so new. It was boxed in early 2004.
After a year I figured I\'d give it another try. Certainly quite a change from last year (as would be expected). It\'s still too young to smoke (harsh beginning) but it\'s settled down into a soft, very mild cigar with subtle complexity and a light nut character. The burn and draw were perfect and it was a pleasant cigar but by no means a great cigar nor do I think it will ever reach that stature. The main problem for me was the total lack of a finish. It was like smoking air with tobacco flavor. I\'ve smoked some marvelous Montes but this wasn\'t one of them. Pretty much a disappointment for a much ballyhooed Montecristo. - Submitted by John Smith - NJ on August 6, 2005
Review #44:     Oooh now yes, I reviewed my first experience of these a while ago but browsing the humidor in my tobacconist last week I spotted their latest box of Edmundos and they just had that delicious look....you know when you can just tel it will be a great smoke from the look, feel and aroma? So I bought a couple more and wow! Still a slight amonia taste around the first inch or so but negligable, as this will go with little time and didn\'t spoil my enjoyment. Spicey to the nose, which I countered with a nice fruity red wine, rich and creamy, tangy, vegetal, cocoa, coffee beans, vanilla, easy draw and fantastic burn! One of those cigars you burn your fingers on then feel like licking your fingers afterwards! Incredibly wonderful, goint to buy alot more and store them a few months (to begin with). ;o) - Submitted by A. Dyer on June 7, 2005
