Montecristo Reserva Negra Robusto
Initially Altidas USA’s Montecristo contained 6 lines. Last summer the Montecristo reserve negra was released which now gives 7 lines to the Montecristo brand. The Wrapper is a San Andres Morron also known as San Andres Negro hence the name Reserva Negra . The interesting thing about this area is that from what i’ve heard the soil is claimed to be comparable to cubas famous Vuelta Abajo , which in Cuba is the prime area of Wrapper tobacco plantations . The name Morron means” chestnut brown”, this wrapper “is also very rare. This will be the first montecristo to Contain a Maduro Wrapper don’t let that scare you, there’s a first for everything.
THE CIGAR
--This Cigar has a beautiful Maduro Wrapper with very few veins at all, it is not oily in any way and contains a rugged finish almost matted you could say . The pre light aroma is very indulging , allot of pepper and coffee scents come through , upon lighting the cigar the draw was slightly tight , but within 3 minutes it really opened itself perfectly to blast my palate with an immense amount of smooth creamy flavours of roasted coffee beans, chocolate, with a little bit of leather , the flavours are apparent in the first 1/3 of the smoke , I really enjoy the way this cigar is manufactured , its slightly box pressed with rounded edges which allows it to stay in your mouth nicely this robusto is really nicely packed , the ash is very strong a little flaky but strong , and the burn is absolutely flawless so far , it seems like this smoke is only going to get better . I’m at the halfway point and i seem to be getting some sweet woody type flavours not necessarily cedary like most cigars offer . At the final 1/3 the cigar really seems to be giving me some full bodied characteristics and overall power , allot more peppery spice is evident but still having a smooth undertone . Not having smoked too many Mexican Wrappered cigars besides the H.Uppman reserve Maduro and the Gispert. The Montecristo Reserva Negra is a deffinate MUST SMOKE. Don’t underestimate the quality of this cigar , i’ve been fortunate enough to smoke Cohiba Maduro’s on many occasions and let me tell you , the Negra in my books is very comparable in taste quality and burn profiles.
WRAPPER San Andres Morron
BINDER Nicaraguan
FILLER Nicaraguan and Honduran
STRENGTH Medium to Full
ASH Beautiful white colour ash
SIZE 5 X 54
SUMMARY
The Montecristo Reserva Negra , is a great smoke that offers alot of desiered flavours that your palate will thank you for . A perfect burn followed by a persistant smoothness with spicy woody and leathery notes , all toped of with a fuller bodied finish of spice this cigar is sure to be one you will not forget , /the wrappers rarity gives the cigar a one up but the taste and construction speaks for itself.

Frank Llaenza 1961 Double Magnum
Reviewed August 2nd 2010
Frank Llaenza 1961 double Magnum
Before the 1961 Llaenza Cigar Frank Llaenza was President of Villazon in Honduras for many years main focus being on the Hoyo de Monterrey and Punch cigar brands. 60 years after his introduction to tobacco and cigars, Frank has created a brand with HIS name on it.
FACTS ABOUT THE LLAENZA 1961
Limited released cigar only 60 stores nationwide cary this cigar CFO sterling Heights and Troy being two of them , this cigar is also sold as IN HOUSE ONLY , there is no online purchasing of this cigar . This cigar is completly handmade in Nicaragua.
THE CIGAR
WRAPPER A dark Ecuador Sumatra wrapper. This is a failry dark wrapper ( almost a chocolate color ) fairly smooth a slight etched feel to it with very nice veins
BINDER Nicaraguan
FILLER Dominican and Nicaraguan
STRENGTH Medium to Full
ASH the ash is a nice firm not flaky solid white colour
The pre light aroma was very endulging reminded me almost of a cuban . the pre light draw seemed very good aswell the real test was to come , This cigar provided an effortless draw the second i lit it , , the burn on this cigar was exceptional , this is obviously due to the great construction of course , this cigar seems almost too good to be true im on the first quarter and im getting some leather , cedary notes , with a smooth undertone staying very persistant , not only is the burn perfect ,but once again the construction comes back again to prove itself , i left this cigar unsmoked for nearly 7 minutes and itstayed just the way it is was i am now at the 1/4 point and im getting some chocolate notes coming through , im now at the halfway point of this amazing stick the flavours the burn and the draw is still as exceptional as it was 30 minutes ago . Im now getting near the end of this cigar and all i can say is WOW seriously , the flavours just exploded as i neared the last ¼ of this stick , just amazing.
SUMMARY
--- This cigar is medium to full bodied , i find it similar to the Oliva Serie V in the sense that they both carry full body characteristics but yet maintain a consistent smoothness throught the cigar, a perfect burn , effortless draw providing , smoot, cedary, leathery, and just a hint of spice , all perfectly balanced to provide an experience that will not be forgotten , just the way that Frank Llaenza intended it to be , the 60 years of experiences is clearly evident in this cigar , must be why he decided to put his name on it
Stop By the CFO and Pick one up today , YOU WILL NOT BE DISSAPOINTED
