Montecristo Linea 1935 Leyenda
The Montecristo Leyenda, the biggest of the Linea 1935 series, competing with the legendary Behike, is a masterpiece, of 55 ring gauge and 6’5” (165mm) long.
A gorgeous and massive Double Robusto cigar that you will enjoy for a good 2 hours. The vitola is not a new one for Montecristo, as it is the same used for the 80 Aniversario.
Medium to full-body cigar with intense flavors
A Montecristo No.2 on steroids: plenty of creamy wood, earth, chocolate and other delicate flavors.
This premium cigar is on par with a Cohiba Behike.
As with the Dumas and the Maltés from the same Linea 1935, the Montecristo Leyenda has thee bands: in addition to the usual Montecristo band with the golden fleur-de-lys, there is also a Linea 1935 extra band that reads Leyenda, and a third band which actually covers and protect the foot of the cigar. It is a massive cigar, pretty heavy in hand but with an apparent flawless construction. The Leyenda is extremely well packed, no gaps or any softer spots.
Ted Sutton –
These cigars are exceptional. The rich, full-bodied flavor with hints of leather and cedar make them a wise investment for any cigar enthusiast.
