Montecristo No. 5

The No. 5 Montecristo is a shorter Cuban cigar with all of the classic Montecristo taste in short order. Part of the iconic Línea Clásica, the Petit Corona is perfect for the smoker who requires a quick smoke without losing depth, richness, or expert construction.

102mm (4 inches) in length and ring gauge 40, the Montecristo No. 5 is produced using the very finest tobaccos grown in Vuelta Abajo, Cuba’s leading tobacco-growing region. Skillfully blended to provide a medium-strength character that is balanced, smooth, and full of flavour from start to finish.

Compact as it is, this cigar produces a concentrated, multi-layered taste adventure. Toasted tobacco and cedar make an entry in the first third, followed in the middle third by coffee, earth, and a minimal whisper of spice, which carry through to the last third. The smoke is rich and fragrant, ideal for fans of Cuban heritage in a short form.

Construction is a reflection of Montecristo’s excellent quality: tight roll, excellent draw, and smooth burn line. The Montecristo No. 5 is perfect for those fleeting moments of pleasure—at a coffee break, between meals, or as an elegant companion for a short walk. Smoking time: approximately 20–30 minutes.

Packed in 10- or 25-count boxes, this Petit Corona is an old favorite among on-and-off smokers and veteran aficionados alike. It also provides an excellent introduction for new cigar smokers to Cuban blends, providing quality, flavor, and tradition at a less intimidating length.
