The Montecristo Petit No.2 Cigar – Box of 10 replicates the flavor profile of the classic No.2 vitola in a shorter format. Measuring 120 mm (4 3/4 inches) with a 52-ring gauge, this Cuban-made cigar uses Vuelta Abajo tobaccos for its construction. The box contains 10 cigars, designed for shorter smoking sessions without compromising the brand’s signature characteristics.
Key Features
This petit pyramid format features a medium-to-full body with a blend of aged tobaccos. The cold draw reveals earthy undertones, while the first third introduces cedar and light spice. Mid-smoke transitions showcase roasted coffee and cocoa notes, balanced by a subtle sweetness from the filler leaves. The final third maintains consistency without harshness.

Construction & Performance
The triple-seam cap and packed foot ensure structural integrity, with an open draw requiring minimal correction. Combustion remains even across all samples, producing a firm ash that holds for 15-20mm. Smoke output remains consistent, with no relights required under proper storage conditions (65-68% RH).
Flavor Development
Initial notes of cedar and white pepper transition to coffee bean and dark chocolate by the second third. The base profile maintains earthy tones throughout, accented by sporadic nutmeg and cinnamon highlights. Retrohales emphasize the cocoa sweetness without overpowering bitterness.
