There’s an old saying, “The sizzle sells the steak”. When it comes to paying over $30 for any single cigar, you’re either going to be pleased or not with the outcome. With that being said, the Montecristo Cincuenta definitely is impressive on a variety of fronts. Worth noting is that this edition was commissioned to honor the 50th anniversary of Tabacalera de García, the largest cigar factory in the world where most of Altadis brands are rolled.
The exquisitely packaged Toro comes in more than beautiful 10-count boxes. Each cigar is handmade by Lucrecia Valdez, the master roller of Tabacalera de García having worked there for 40 years. The blend is comprised of aged, vintage leaves across the board. The Ecuadorian Sumatra wrapper, Dominican Republic binder, and fillers from the Dominican Republic and Nicaragua are said to be hand picked for this limited edition cigar. Interestingly enough, the wrapper is very rough and toothy.
It seems when the rubber meets the road, or in this case, when this cigar is lit up and smoked, the jury at large is either out or mixed at best. Many folks have enjoyed the Cincuenta immensely while others found it “pretty good”. As with any cigar, your palate is all that counts. No doubt, devoted fans of this iconic brand will deem Cincuenta as a must have. As much as I love Montecristo, this particular one is above my pay grade, so I’ll leave it to those who’ve tried them to post a review. If a Cincuenta passes through my hands, I’ll leave my thoughts as I’ve done in the past. Stay Tuned.
