Its uneven tautness of seams, some stretching of top-leaf, a short cap set flimsily atop, and last but not least: a sloppy divot at the 1/2-way mark.

The Montecristo Crafted by AJ Fernandez Robusto adds a respectable new spin on one of most venerable brand names in the entire cigar world. It sits at medium to medium-full in terms of flavor intensity and body, while ramping up from medium-minus to medium-plus in strength. While I'd like to get more specific flavors and complexity out of the cigar, there is rarely a moment where the cigar isn't flavorful and engaging on the palate. While I'm not floored by the cigar, I'm certainly impressed and wouldn't turn down another if offered.
