Smoking the Montecristo White Series Rothschild (5 x 52) is a smooth and refined experience from start to finish. Right away, you get a creamy, mellow profile with notes of cedar, toasted almonds, and a touch of white pepper. The Ecuadorian Connecticut wrapper adds a bit of sweetness with hints of vanilla and hay, giving it a well-balanced, easygoing character.
The burn is sharp, and while the draw is slightly firm, it still produces plenty of silky smoke. As the cigar progresses, the flavors stay consistent and smooth, with the nuttiness becoming more noticeable in the final third.
It’s a perfect morning smoke—mild to medium-bodied, relaxing, and something you can just sit back and enjoy without thinking too much.
It was harsh at the very start but then mellowed out very quickly and was nice and mellow for 9/10th of the cigar. Maybe it was a one-off. I’ll try another and see. Overall, Id still recommend it.
Very mellow with no burn at all. Did not draw well at all. Vanilla. Sweet. I was looking for something on the milder side but this was a little too tame.
Nice smooth mellow smoke for relaxing with a cup of coffee on n the morning
Has vanilla flavor, pretty light but still has some spice. Perfect middle cigar. If 100 is heavy and 0 is light I’d say it’s 36.
Very mild at the start trending toward medium in the second half. Good draw and very consistent burn throughout. My go-to choice for an easy smoke.
Nice, well built cigar. Very mellow, pleasant taste. Gets slightly stronger in the last third. Too mellow for me, wouldn’t buy a box (not for the price), but I’d smoke it again anytime.
Quite mild and very little to complexity.
Burn was even and good pace. Would not buy again.
