Experience the timeless elegance of the Montecristo No. 4, a cigar that exemplifies the rich heritage and meticulous craftsmanship of Cuban tobacco. As the best-selling Cuban cigar globally, the Montecristo No. 4 offers a harmonious blend of flavors, making it a staple for both seasoned aficionados and newcomers seeking a premium smoking experience.
Dimensions and Construction:
The Montecristo No. 4 measures 5 inches (129 mm) in length with a 42-ring gauge, embodying the classic Mareva vitola. Its construction is impeccable, featuring a smooth, medium-brown wrapper with minimal veins and no hard or weak spots. The cigar is firmly packed, ensuring an excellent draw and a consistent burn throughout the smoking session.
Flavor Profile:
Upon lighting, the Montecristo No. 4 greets the palate with a delightful combination of creamy coffee, cocoa, and sweet vanilla. As the cigar progresses, these flavors evolve, introducing nuances of light cedar and an earthy spice, creating a complex and balanced profile. The medium-bodied strength ensures a satisfying experience without overwhelming the senses.
Smoking Experience:
Despite its compact size, the Montecristo No. 4 delivers a rich and fulfilling smoking session, typically lasting around 30 to 40 minutes. The draw is effortless, producing ample, aromatic smoke, while the burn remains even, requiring minimal attention. This makes it an ideal choice for moments when time is of the essence, yet a premium cigar experience is desired.
Pairing Suggestions:
To enhance the Montecristo No. 4’s intricate flavors, consider pairing it with a fine espresso or a single malt Scotch whisky. The rich coffee notes complement the cigar’s creamy and cocoa tones, while the smoky undertones of the Scotch accentuate its rich complexity.
Aging Potential:
While the Montecristo No. 4 is exceptional when enjoyed fresh, allowing it to age can further develop its flavor profile. Over time, the cigar’s components meld together, resulting in a smoother, more nuanced experience that rewards patience.

What a fantastic small cigar! I thoroughly enjoyed this with a late night Talisker. Very well made, excellent flavours all the way down and a good burn all the way, for a good 45 minutes.
