Richard's Past experience:

If you are going to start smoking Cubans, chances are that it will be through this cigar. The highest selling Havana in the world offers reliability, excellent construction and an interesting balance of power and flavor. Damp earth and wood dominate this easy smoke, that can be sampled at any time of the day. Ideal for beginners !

"My favorite cigar. Consitently smooth. Never had a bad one yet. I feel like I should be paying 2 or 3 times as much for this good of a smoke."

"I've only been smoking for about two years or but I had never tried one of these up until about a month ago. I must say I was looking really forward to this smoke after hearing all the hype over it, plus I gave it a fair while in my humi before I touched it. Over all it's not bad just personally I didn't enjoy it very much."

"Had a opportunity to taste about 10 different cuban petit coronas recently and the monty's have the best taste and flavor. These are best in class."

"The best petit corona out there! Hints of coffee (with cream) spice and everything nice. What you'd expect from a great cuban. God Bless The Vuelta Abajo!!!

Richard, you're the best.

"wow, to me, this was better than the monte #2, very spicy, creamy, great pillowy smoke, excellent aftertaste, hint of sweetness. I wasn't expecting much, but was very surprised--I will order more, outstanding."

"Cubans have increased in quality across the board the last few years and this is a true testament to that. Earthy, salty and a spicy finish, completely smooth. This cigar is quite frankly the best of it's class."

"bought my first box just a little after christmas have had them sitting in my humidor and finally got to smoking one , these babies are quite possibly the best i have tryed (i've only tryed about 5-7 different cigars) but i'm sure i'll keep a good number of these in my humidor for that special moment"

"When you get a good one, wow its fantastic, a little cigar that makes you want to take a nap afterwards. Sometimes though, they are just "ehh". More consistency would grant a much higher score."

"First off, this is a good smoke and a great value, but not as well balanced as some others, perhaps more humidor time would help. Still well made, good burn, and the taste is bolder than you might expect"

"Out of all the Montecristos this has to be the most consistent smoke.Slow burning full flavour yet not over powering. Smokes real slow for a shorty and has just the right amount of spice. This is also a great value from Top Cubans. I keep these stocked at all times in my humidor thanks to Richard."

"Never a disappointment. Always consistent. Excellent short smoke."

On 2002-06-03, bill give the note of 4.5
"This is a great cigar that upholds the Montecristo tradition. A mild smoke with wonderful flavors and subtle sweetness. A consistent burn with a light gray, solid ash. A prelight bouquet only found in Cuban cigars. I will definitely buy these again."

"Iam new to cuban cigars.com. After scratching the surface of some of the more notable cubans, I found the Monte Cristo #4 to be outstanding! This cigar has the body and sweetness that lives up to its name. If you like it "short and sweet" this is the cigar for you!!

Thanks Richard,

John"
