"Smooth"

Goodness, these were my first cigars of any real value, and they continue to be my favorite brand, style, and taste. Well done, Montecristo

Montecristo White #2

"Superlative Mild+-Medium Cigar"

So far I've had ten of the Montecristo White Toros and one of the Montecristo White #2s, and thus far they are superlative in my opinion. If they were a little less expensive they would be my go to cigar when I want something on the mild-medium side. I prefer cigars that are very rich in flavor and on the stronger side (medium-full), but I love cigars that are sweet and mild-medium. Everything about this cigar is great by my standards, but like I said I prefer medium-full cigars that are very rich. That aside the burn is great, the consistency is superb, the draw is very good, the appearance is spectacular, and the construction is great. Taste wise it's bland for me, but it has some sweetness, earthiness, hints of coffee, and at the beginning a hint of spice. I would say that that the Montecristo White is becoming one of my favorite cigars especially in the mild-medium class!

Montecristo White Rothchilde

"Flawed"

Upon removing the label I found the blue mold spots carefully hidden. It's certainly not fatal but it surprised me for such an iconic brand. The burn was very uneven and while it was indeed a savory smoke, the construction was sub-par. In all, a surprising amount of defects for a premium stick.

Montecristo White #2

"This is a great cigar"

This exact cigar, the #2 belicoso and no other size or shape Monte White, is one of my favorite cigars. Absolutley one of the best!

"Best Smoke Ever"

I picked one of these up on vacation about two months ago and I'm not over it yet. I've paid more but not had a better tasting smoke. The wife saved the tube to buy some for me for Christmas but the local shop had run out, bummer. I've informed her about Famous Smoke. Happy Birthday to me!!

Montecristo White Especial No. 3

"A classic, well worth your time."

Very well made and like most I've bought here fresh and in great shape. Perfect draw right from the cut to the end. Opens a little light but develops nicely. Even burn from start to finish. Light gray ash holds on well. Medium smoke, on the creamy side but not too sweet just hints of carameltowards the finish. Great in the morning or mid day when you still need to function. Slow burner despite the size so plan on spending some time. Warm and supple down to the nub. Keep some in your box.

Montecristo White Toro

"Great Mild-Medium Cigar"

I ordered a tin of the White Montecristos, because they were on sale. I'm very very glad I did. They're not as pungent or strong, in my opinion, as the Romeo y Julieta Reserva Reals I keep in my humidor, but they don't need to be. I actually enjoy them more as a weekly smoke, because they're not as strong. Everything about the cigar is superb. The only gripe I have is the particular tin of cigars I recieved were somewhat dry and had fairly large veins. They are very attractive, the draw is great as long as you make sure it is lit well, the consistancy is very good, and the burn is great. Regarding taste it is excellent. It is very smooth, creamy, and slightly sweet. These are definately going to be my weekly cigar that's for sure, and have a permanent place in my humidor along with Romeo y Julieta and Playboy

"Excellent cigar"

This is an amazing cigar, I smoke Cuban but this is as good or even better than the Cuban. Excellent price

Montecristo White Rothschilde 5 Pack

"Taste like fish and amonia"

They started out good but half way thru both started to taste like F & A. Unable to finish. Then I rememered this happened to me once before about a year ago. I would be interested to know if anyone else had this experience.

"Quality cigar, smooth taste and aroma"

Good cigar for after dinner or on the golf course. Smooth tates and good burn.
