About this cigar
Montecristo Double Edmundo — tasting notes and pricing context
The Double Edmundo was added to the Línea Edmundo in 2013 to extend the line into a fuller, longer-smoking format. At 6.1 inches by a 50 ring (Habanos calls the shape Toro Grande), it's roughly an inch longer than the standard Edmundo and the longer format gives the cigar a slower, more complex evolution. The blend is identical to the rest of the Edmundo line — heavier Vuelta Abajo ligero than the Línea Clásica, darker oilier Habano wrapper, fuller body — but the longer burn time means the cigar moves through more flavour phases before finishing.
The smoke is rich and dense. First third opens with espresso, cocoa and a touch of leather; the middle blooms into dark chocolate, dried fruit and aged cedar; the last third drops into a long, oily finish with leather, coffee and a whisper of pepper. Smoking time runs 80 to 100 minutes. Across Europe a box of 10 sits in the €550 to €690 range: Noblego runs around €595, Cigarworld €610, Cigarmust CHF 660 (~€695 after FX). The Double Edmundo allocates tightly — it's frequently OOS at one or two major retailers — so a watchlist back-in-stock alert is genuinely useful here.
