A short, fat Cuban that smokes well above its size — the Petit Edmundo packs cocoa, coffee and earth into a quick 4.3-inch robusto.
Flavor profile
Sweet · Roast · Earthy · Spice
The Montecristo Petit Edmundo is the little brother of the Edmundo: a short, fat cigar at 4.3 inches by a 52 ring gauge. Released in 2006, it was built for smokers who love the Edmundo's rich character but don't always have an hour to spare.
What it tastes like
For such a small cigar it smokes surprisingly big. The wide ring gauge keeps it cool and smooth while delivering the full Montecristo punch: cocoa, coffee, earth, cedar, and a measured black-pepper spice. It's medium-to-full and concentrated — there's no slow build, it gets to the good stuff quickly and stays there for around 30 to 40 minutes.
Who it's for
This is a great pick for an experienced smoker who wants serious Cuban flavor in a short window. It's not a beginner cigar — the strength arrives fast — but it's immensely satisfying. Pair it with an espresso or a rum.
If you'd rather have the same blend in a longer, more gradual smoke, reach for the Montecristo Edmundo. For a primer on body and intensity, see our cigar strength guide — and track your smoke in the Casa DNC app.
