Montecristo Edmundo BUE ABR 08

[CigarZen]

This video review and thread helped select my lunch time smoke today - so I went back to try another Edmundo....

It was OK - just OK - like the others of these I have smoked before - and like the others that I believe will be just like it when I reach for these from my holdings.

I have had a similar express with this cigar, which given its size and marque has so much potential. When first release I got a pack of 15 to sample -- awesome, well rolled, rich and flavorful. Since then on later boxed product I have been underwhelmed. But I continue to hope they will step up the blend more like a good No. 2.

Monte Edmundo SEM MAR 08

Monte Brown colored wrapper w/ some "Angel Kisses", hardly any veins and oily

Bought 2 singles from Czar

Pre draw is pure poon-tang and wind tunnel.......have to smoke it slow as it burns quick

Flavors included cedar shoe horns, leather, white pepper, cream and light cocoa

I love the size of this cigar

Good to give to a friend who wants to "try a Cuban"

Blah first 10 mins then picks up pace

Like the video stated, pretty girl w/ not much of a personality.........The Petite Edmundo is more like a Hooker, right to the point

8.9/10........will let the other single sit for 6 months to see what it does
