Monte Petit Tubos:

Construction: Dull looking doen't really look special in any way.

Appearance: Nothign special the logo stamped into the cap of the tubo struck me. The wood insert smelled pretty good after opening the tube.

Cut: Branded Cigar Scissors.

Draw: Wayy too tight but this wasn't bad as toward the end as it loosened up the stick became very hot.

Aroma:

Wow The first third was strongly woody, with a flavor that reminded me a cough drops. The draw eased after an inch or so but I wish it hadn't because along with the easing, that taste dissapeared into a bliss of coffee and dark rich chocolate which lasted to the end. The stick became hot but I didn't mind at all.

This cigar is not highly regarded amoung Cubans but I have definitely found my favorite Cigar of all time. In my opinion MC petit tubos/ No. 4 blows Cohiba's Esplendidos, RyJ's R No.2 and Prince of Wales alogn with H. Upmann's Corona Major out of the Water entirely.

Price and place of purchase: 10 CuC (Cuban Convertable Pesos roughly 1=1 with USD) in a hotel gift shop

Sadly I only have one of these beautiful sticks left probably saving for graduation day. For the price of Habanos this is the only one I would reccommend.
