Received this Montecristo and a few others from a fellow enthusiast from Spain as I was leaving a party and was woundering if anyone has an idear of what it is and what the shape is called. It's 5 1/2" long and about a 46 at the thickest part of the foot and a 36 at the head. Thanks

I don't know about the cigar, but is a catador a guy who waves a tiny little red cape in front of a cat?
Only the Master Catadors get to use tiny capes. The novices use big ones like for bulls and shit.Quote:

School lesson from the novice.
CATADOR
Professional cigar taster who determines a cigar's qualities of aroma, taste and texture.
Hey, but seriously I'm trying out the cigar breifcase program and just wanted to file what the cigar was.
Honestly I'm not familiar with it.
Since your friend is from Spain...It might be available in that region only. Some cigar companies have Europe only releases.
I've never seen a Montecristo that looks like this. Did your friend get it from someone named Steven Myers in Warren, PA?:smiley5:
I'll be damned...I kinda prefer Basil's explanation.Quote:

Not sure if it is a limited edition or just very hard to find but almost no online retailers have it. Theyt have this cigar at cigarcyclopedia.com listing of cigars so I assume it does exist somewhere. But then again.......... who knowsQuote:
