Description
Montecristo Espada Estoque #2 is one of the most beautifully made and complexly blended cigars Montecristo makes. Hands down! Altadis acquired the Montecristo name for outside of Cuba in 1990 and began producing many sizes and styles available to all of us. Over the years, this brand’s portfolio continues to grow adding blends appealing to every smoker. Expensive? Yes. Worth the price? Absolutely. Quality, consistency, draw and taste complexity remain perfect to this day.
With attention to detail, the super smooth medium bodied ESTOQUE is an all-Nicaraguan cigar with more prized, aged tobaccos from the Placencia family. It’s also important to note this is a Limited Edition entry. The vintage leaves used here range up to over 20 years old. That is to say, this is a very special cigar!
On one hand, Cigar Dojo rates it a respectable 90 touting the deep, rich, complex flavors. Blind Man’s Puff scores it at 93 with accolades as well. “Tobacco, leather, cedar, spice, and mild pepper dance around my taste buds. It’s a delight- an amazing set of flavors.” Still not convinced? Cigar Aficionado gives it a solid 91 with an equally great description. “A dark and picture-perfect torpedo with a notably pointy tip. Light notes of wood and black tea become heavier with caramel, cocoa and a warm toasty finish.” To be sure, this is the Montecristo you have to try!
To sum up, Montecristo Espada Estoque #2 is available in spectacular 6×50 sized Torpedos in beautiful 10 count boxes. Also, on the condition you’d just like to try them, sealed 5 packs are available as well.
