The Montecristo Leyenda is a large robusto measuring 165 mm by a 55 ring gauge, wrapped in a well-set Colorado wrapper with a dense fill. The cold draw reveals light spices and wood, with a proper draw.
The first third opens with aromas of wood, earth, and delicate spices, quickly unveiling cocoa notes carried by rich, velvety smoke.
In the second third, the cocoa intensifies noticeably alongside earthy hints, with strength building steadily. Combustion remains flawless.
The final third maintains comfort while delivering a sophisticated blend of woody, cocoa, and earthy flavors, perfectly balanced.
A premium cigar at a global price point, the Leyenda achieves a top rating this year. Expertly rolled, it offers a rich, evolving flavor profile without overwhelming strength.
