# Montecristo Classic Connecticut Review

Montecristo Classic Connecticut is a true mild bodied, medium-mild strength gem. The White Series is an excellent cigar, but don’t overlook the Classic. For my money, it has a deeper, richer and more complex flavor profile. By Bear On The Air on February 23 2024 4:45:20 PM

## Montecristo Classic Connecticut

Montecristo Classic Connecticut is a true mild bodied, medium-mild strength gem. The White Series is an excellent cigar, but don’t overlook the Classic. For my money, it has a deeper, richer and more complex flavor profile. The blend is supposedly as close as we’ll get to the original pre-embargo Cuban, but who knows for sure?

The construction is A-plus – perfect draw, nice smoke output, a precise straight burn that required zero touchups.

It’s creamy smooth with cedar and cashews – always a good sign with a Connecticut in my book – accompanied by mild pepper, coffee, milk chocolate and vanilla. Both the White Series and the Classic Connecticut are very good pairings with morning coffee.
