Montesino Napoleon Grande

"Great Everyday Smoke!"

I've been smoking cigars for years and still try different brands looking for the perfect stick. For just relaxing, or special occasions, I prefer La Gloria Cubana hands down. For golfing, or working in the yard, etc., give me a Napoleon Grande any time. Great taste, lots of smoke, easy draw is all I ask in a good stick. No matter how many brands I try, I always come back to a Napoleon Grande. Not always pretty to look at but always great taste! One can compare it to great sex with an ugly girl.

"A very good mild affordable cigar."

I like this cigar. It is mild and affordable.

Montesino Gran Corona

"Not as smooth as the Connecticut wrapper"

I love Montesino Gran Corona and it seems a lot of others do as well since the Connecricut is out of stock a lot. This being the case I decided to try the Maduro. While still a good cigar it just doesn't have that smooth taste of the Connecticut wraper.

Montesino Robusto

"Mellow and smooth"

I client gave me a Montesino Robusto at the Opening Day of thoroughbred racing in Del Mar. Right away I noticed it was fresh and the smoke was as equally satisfying. Not big or bold, just a mellow, nice smoke. I'm not a "smoke it down to the stub" guy, but the mellow flavor kept going, why stop?

Montesino Diplomatico

"Great cigar at any price"

I have been looking for a long time for a replacement for the Hamilton's Reserve Corona and I have now found it. For me this was a mild smoke with a great taste. The burn was even with a long ash. The appearence was excellent. As a smoker of mild sticks, I now have found a Fuente that I can enjoy. I have told all my cigar smoking friends about this brand. I will definitely continue with this cigar and may even share one or two.

"Excellent medium smoke for the late afternoon!"

This a great cigar with a pint of amber ale at your favorite bar on a Friday afternoon. It's got a smooth draw, relatively even burn (just keep turning), creamy mouthful smoke, and great earthy taste that remains almost to the end. Never had one until the other week, but I'll be back for more.

Montesino Napoleon Grande

"No wonder they sell out so fast!"

Starts out a bit strong & bitter, then mellows out into a creamy, leathery, earthy flavor that delicately yet powerfully says "Fuente". Make sure you stock up on these while they're available, because they sell quickly. After all, you're getting a Churchill sized smoke for a Lonsdale size price.

"Great cigar"

What a great cigar this is. Nice appearance, creamy and flavourful smoke and a nice, firm white ash.....A cigar for great events

"A good cigar and real deal at the price"

This cigar is more of a Churchill than a Lonsdale. Wrapper is somewhat darker than most Naturals, almost a SG. Burn is even. Draw is light and full. Cigar is firm without being dense. Flavor is "earthy" with notes of leather. Slightly stronger than I had expected for the size. Well-made and consistent through the bundle. You can taste A. Fuente standing behind it. Ash is medium grey, light and flaky. An excellent golf cigar or for outdoors since the ash makes it a little messy. Others would probably sell for much more.
