In today’s age of the sneaky ‘back-door smoke, the No 5 is perfect. All the greatest attributes of the longer Montecristo’s are here in abundance. Still one of the best value Cuban cigars on the market.

It can be bewildering: brand A against brand C; vitola (size) F against vitola G. It can all be rather confusing.

Not too strong, silky and full of honey-like flavors and aromas.
