The Montecristo Petit No. 2 is a petit figurado measuring 120 mm by a 52 ring gauge, wrapped in a chocolate Colorado wrapper with golden highlights that is tender and elastic. It features a perfect fill and an easy draw.
The first third opens simply and immediately, delivering very fragrant smoke with woody-earthy notes, dried fruits, and black pepper. Ventilation is excellent, with noticeable and well-balanced strength.
The second third shifts to a more autumnal character—wet earth, mushroom, and black pepper—without excess. The smoke is smooth and even carries a certain softness.
Despite its modest size, the final third remains very homogeneous and balanced, with flavors of dark chocolate, precious wood, and roasted tea. The finish is powerful.
A pocket-sized robusto that offers dynamic flavors, excellent craftsmanship, and plenty of character. A true find.
