Petit No. 2 Tubes

Description

The cigar appears very well rolled. The wrapper is nearly ideal, very smooth, oily, with a few almost invisible veins, an attractive medium-brown colour in the Colorado shade. Before lighting, you’ll notice aromas of wood, hay, tobacco, with some notes of leather and spice. Flavour development: in the first third, the cigar is very rich in aromas, strongly reminiscent of its bigger brother, the Montecristo No.2. There’s a typical Cuban creaminess, which balances the unique sweet-spicy taste of the Montecristo No. 2. The dominant aromas are chocolate, roasted nuts, herbal notes such as green or black tea, and cedar. The spices are very intense, with notes of nutmeg and cinnamon, coffee and vanilla. Overall, the cigar carries a lot of sweetness and creaminess, which balances its strength. The second third is just as lovely and very persistent, with aromas of toasted tobacco, cream, cedar and chocolate. However, the sweetness is practically imperceptible here, replaced by notes of bread, while the coffee aromas become more pronounced. Toward the end, some delightful spices and white pepper can be felt.
