Montecristo Media Corona OBM ENE 17 (MPCRW)

[Piligrim]

I remember the moment that vitola was presented in Russia. My first thought it's ok, but too small. when we got first batch it also was overpriced because of Russian excise and tax system when distributor pays same cost for half coronam prominente or even for shortfiller. I decided to pass on those that time. 

I found the way after many months and try to buy those from other distributors when have a chance. Smoked a lot of Monte Media Corona and love them now. one of my favorite daily cigars.

that one is pretty aged (more than 2 years old). picked up one more from the box to start my coffee break.

pretty good looking with colorado wrapper.

started a bit earthy with espresso and cocoa. light sweetness. very nice.

second third a bit leathery, slightly spicy, nuts.

final third espresso changed for cappuccino. cigar got creamy, nutty.

very good one overall. I would rate it for 92/100.
