Just how good is the Montecristo Nicaragua Toro cigar? A rhetorical question if ever there was one because there is no way this premium handmade could be anything less than spectacular. If you have doubts about our sincerity, let’s cover the basics. First of all, this is a Montecristo, an epic brand that has shined through the ages thanks to a rock-solid commitment to producing only the best cigars possible. Then there’s the creator of this new classic, the incomparable A.J Fernandez, who ensures the vitolas are lovingly crafted at his Esteli-based factory to ensure the taste remains faithful to his original exclusive blend. Lastly, and most importantly, nothing but the finest aged Nicaraguan longleaf tobacco is used for every layer of this scrumptious full-throttle delight.
Elegant in appearance and heady with potent aroma, the solid 6” X 54 barrel of each hefty cigar rightfully deserves to wear a band emblazoned with the iconic Montecristo design. Make sure to take slow, deep pulls as you apply a flame to ensure the broad foot is fully lit because you don’ want to miss out on even the smallest drop of potent flavor. Generous with espresso, oak, and a meaty char, the Montecristo Nicaragua Toro also delights in releasing more subtle tastes like cardamom, dry-roasted peanut, sweet cream, and salted caramel. Before the nub is finally laid to rest, the palate will have thrilled to dark chocolate, black cherry, and a touch of bitter herbs.
You are going to need to find out for yourself that yes, these really are that good. All the ’93 Rated!’ and ‘Top 10 of 2018!’ accolades in the world mean nothing if those cigar enthusiasts who enjoy rich, complex Nicaraguan smokes like the 602 Maduro or E.P. Carrillo Encore can’t enjoy a few Montecristo Nicaraguan Toro for themselves. That’s where we come in, to help you in your time of need. Grab a box or two today, open that rare bottle of Scotch or tawny port you’ve been saving, and get ready for some serious enjoyment.
