Montecristo Espada Oscuro Guard (6×50)
$17.08 – $153.74
A collaboration for the ages! The Espada, meaning “Sword,” was unlike any Montecristo cigar before it, and featured some of the finest aged tobaccos from the Plasencia family’s renowned Nicaraguan tobacco library. After the release and success of the original Espada, it was time for Montecristo’s famed Grupo de Maestros to get back to work on a follow up. The result was the Espada Oscuro. This Nicaraguan Puro also uses rare leaf from Plasencia’s Nicaraguan tobacco library. It is bold, and quite a bit stronger with thick notes of earth, leather, pepper, spice, and hints of chocolate. With a combination like Montecristo and Plasencia, you know you are in for something out of this world! Grab your self an Espada today, and let your tastebuds lift off!

Tonight I smoked the Montecristo Espada Oscuro Guard, and here’s the run down. This cigar is wrapped like it belongs under a Christmas tree. Thanks to Gurkha I’m always leary about nice awesome looking bands and the experience you’re going to get. The “Cut and a light” reveals some nice flavors of wood, spices including cinnamon, oak with some pepper on the tongue and retro hale. Some other dark flavor can’t really call, it’s like a seasoning you’d use on baked chicken. It’s medium body. In the second third there’s not a lot transitioning and the flavors have muted. Pepper has picked up a bit. I’ve had to make some touch ups with the crooked burn line. It does have a good draw but it has tried to go out on me. The flavors have kinda fallen away and it’s dark and slightly earthy. Into the final third pepper and spice have taken this cigar hostage. It’s medium plus strength and just peppery. The end. 83 points.
