Montecristo Short

Looks like these have just hit the shelves in Europe. I would imagine we'll be seeing more brands getting a Short.

Thanks--these sound interesting--I really enjoy the Cohiba and Trini shorts in the winter.

How does the price compare to the puritos?

Is this just a shorter purito?

The two brands that had the Short, Cohiba & Trini, don't have Puritos. This is the first brand that will have both (unless they decide to kill them now that the Short is out).

The only ones I've had were the Cohiba Short, and they were pretty consistent with the Puritos from other brands like Partagas Chicos, RyJ Puritos and Monte Puritos in terms of DNA and quality.

My issue is the length. I think the Puritos are short enough. The Shorts are way too short for me. You might as well smoke Clubs or Minis. And they're more expensive than the Puritos.

I believe I saw a price of ~12 euro for the 10 pack of the Monte Short. You can pick up Monte and RyJ Puritos for well under $1 each.
