Montecristo Montecristo No. 4 Review:
The taste of numbers 1, 3 and 4 is quite the same, coffee, cocoa and vanilla flavours blended in great harmony with a medium tobacco taste. A minimum ageing of at least three years is recommended for this cigar to find its real potential.

Review #107: I bought a box of these apr 04. Realy nice sigar but not the ultimate like the cohiba robusto. A bit bitter taste and bunring isnt that even as the cohiba's. Some times things get uneven. For the price (8 euro) it is a really great sigar. But if you don't consider the price paid it's not that good. I rather have a cohiba robusto or Siglo VI instead. - Submitted by Jeroen van der Pluijm on January 6, 2007
Review #106: I bought one of these from my local tobacconist the other day, and found it to be a fine cigar. Lots of beautiful smoke and a delicious taste. Sorry, but I never taste " pepper, chocolate, spice " or anything else that other reviewers mention. My tastebuds just taste good tobacco. I have to wonder if it isn't a little overpriced though. I paid $15 Cdn. for this little guy, and I know there are equally good cigars for a third of that price. - Submitted by W. Merrifield on December 21, 2006
Review #105: Regarding review 103 - Yes, can be a bit iffy when very young, but this shows up as draw problems rather than lack of "flavour, taste and aroma"..... The ones from the 5 packs are usually the lowest standard of manufacture too. Try the #4's when they are over 4 years old (or a MC Petit Tubo) and its a guaranteed minimum 7/10! - Submitted by XBO on December 19, 2006
Review #104: I am shocked by the previous review: Perhaps he purchased some fake product? I find the Montecristo No. 4 to be one of the best petit coronas available. Just the right bite, loads of chocolate and sandstone notes, accompanied by a lush draw and a perfect burn make this cigar a blockbuster. The fact that it is the most produced cigar on the planet says it all: A true must have. - Submitted by jcruise400 on December 19, 2006
Review #103: Montecristo No. 4 must be produced by a magician. A magician? Yes, yes, yes, a magician. A magician who succeeds in disburdening this cigar of virtually ALL flavours. In its own (very, very – no: extreme) quiet way No. 4 builds up to one of the most astonishing experiences you're ever to have. Just think for a second – have you ever tasted something with no flavour at all? With Montecristo's No. 4 it's all possible! But no, I'm not fair, because in the last third there could be one or another flavour! But I'm really not sure because No. 4 in this part evolves into a sharpness which would superimpose over any aroma. I've heard that No. 4 is the most successful of all Cuban cigars which is an insult to all the other brands (and formats). It shows (and now to the moralistic part of this review) that in today's mass culture, only things with no personality at all can be really successful. With its lack of flavour, taste and aroma, Montecristo No. 4 is not necessarily a cigar for those who hate cigars. But it for sure is a cigar for those who hate smoking them. - Submitted by bikel73 on December 18, 2006
