Overview: Montecristo Open Junior The Montecristo Open Junior is a Trabuco vitola, measuring at 110mm with a 38 ring gauge.   Montecristo released the Open series in 2009,  aiming to create a milder blend of cigars to lure in the novice cigar smoker or those just getting familiar with the power of the Cuban cigars. The Montecristo Junior is a gentle smoke with an element of freshness, full of earthy aromas. We found flavour notes of wood, nuts, leather and touches of fruit in the mild-medium bodied smoke, there is a slight complexity to the flavours, but overall an easy smoking cigar. The Open Junior would pair well with a morning coffee or an afternoon wine, being the smallest format of the Open line you can expect to enjoy it for up to 45 minutes, and is well suited for beginner and experienced smokers alike. We recommend aging these cigars for at least two years to allow the flavours to settle and develop their complexity.

The Montecristo Linea 1935 line is a recent addition to the brands portfolio being released in 2017. They contain an original blend of tobacco from the Pinar del Río region to create the strongest flavours with the most intensity within the Montecristo line. The Dumas is a Prominente Corto vitola, with a 49 ring gauge and 130mm in length, which is comparable to a Short Robusto. The cigars in the Linea 1935 line distinguish themselves from the rest of the brands offerings with a secondary band that carries their individual vitola names. The construction is elite as they are tripa larga, totalmente a mano – long filler, totally handmade, which creates a razor sharp draw that offers an abundance of rich creamy smoke. Pre light we found aromas of earth and cedar wood, while the opening gave off vegetal notes at first that quickly transitioned into a delicious mix of coffee, caramel and touches of vanilla and leather. We highly recommend purchasing a box if given the opportunity, The presentation of the box is stunning, boasting a dark brown matte Carmelite lacquer finish and unique beveled edges, finished with an engraved with a fleur-de-lis that has become synonymous with the Montecristo brand from its inception. The remarkable product inside combined with the work of art that contains them, makes it an excellent investment.

The Monteristo is a Forum vitola, measuring at 135 in length with a 46 ring gauge. Montecristo released the Open series in 2009,  aiming to create a milder blend of cigars to lure in the novice cigar smoker or those just getting familiar with the power of the Cuban cigars. The Regata is constructed immaculately, hand rolled in a colorado wrapper, and finished with a perfectly finished tip. This cigar is likely the most intense of the Open range, with dark rich flavours of wood and coffee mixed with a decadent nuttyness and a touch of honey. In the second half a spicy note appeared, along with some floral notes. The burn is razor sharp on this cigar from start to finish, with the final smoke time lasting just over an hour. We recommend aging these cigars for at least two years to allow the flavours to settle and develop their complexity. Try pairing these back to a crisp IPA on a hot summer day for a premium smoking experience.
