Every Montecristo Petit Edmundo is guaranteed 100% authentic, sourced directly from Habanos S.A. with the official seal and full traceability from Vuelta Abajo to your door.
The Montecristo Petit Edmundo distills the legendary Montecristo blend into a stout, satisfying smoke that never feels rushed. Launched by Habanos S.A. in 2006, it arrived as a shorter companion to the popular Edmundo and became one of the first stubby large-ring formats Cuba produced for smokers who wanted a generous cigar in less time. Despite its modest length, this Petit Robusto carries the dark, cocoa-laden personality that has defined the Montecristo marca since its founding in 1935, and many aficionados find it punches well above its size.
The opening third settles into well-defined wood and cedar, framed by double-roasted coffee and an unmistakable note of cocoa that signals its Montecristo lineage. As the burn moves into the second third, earth and walnut step forward, the leather deepens, and a gentle spice keeps the medium body lively without ever turning harsh. Through the final stretch the smoke grows richer and a touch fuller, closing on a long, nutty finish laced with bittersweet chocolate and roasted coffee.
The Petit Edmundo smokes beautifully young, yet it rewards patience. Kept in a seasoned humidor held near 65 to 70 percent relative humidity and around 16 to 18 degrees Celsius, the spice settles over a year or two and the cocoa and cedar grow rounder and sweeter. The thick 52 ring gauge gives plenty of tobacco to mature, so a box rested for several years can develop notable depth and a softer, creamier core.
This is a cigar for the smoker who wants genuine Montecristo flavor without committing to a longer vitola. Newcomers appreciate its approachable medium body, while seasoned palates value the complexity packed into the format. It suits a quick morning smoke with coffee just as well as an unhurried evening, and its short stature makes it an ideal travel companion or after-dinner choice.
What size is the Montecristo Petit Edmundo?
It is a Petit Robusto measuring 4.3 inches (110 mm) with a 52 ring gauge, giving it a short but thick, hand-filling shape.
Is the Petit Edmundo a strong cigar?
It sits in the medium range for the marca, leaning toward medium-full in the final third. It is flavorful and rich rather than overpowering, which makes it accessible while still rewarding experienced smokers.
How long does it take to smoke?
Thanks to its compact 4.3-inch length, most smokers enjoy it in roughly 35 to 50 minutes, making it a great option when time is limited.

Top-tier quality from Montecristo. The Montecristo Petit Edmundo showcases everything I love about Cuban cigars - impeccable craftsmanship, smooth draw, and layers of flavor. Picked up notes of almonds and honey. Burned evenly throughout. A must-try for any serious aficionado!
Decent petit corona but not my favorite from Montecristo. The Montecristo Petit Edmundo has good flavor - earth and nuts - but didn't wow me like other Cubans I've had. Construction was fine, burn was mostly even. It's good, just not exceptional. Worth trying though.

Excellent petit corona from Montecristo. The Montecristo Petit Edmundo has a refined flavor profile - lots of spice and toast. Draw was perfect and it burned for about 46 minutes. Only minor complaint is it's slightly strong for my taste, but overall a great smoke.

Very good cigar. The Montecristo Petit Edmundo lives up to its reputation. Beautiful wrapper, good construction, and nice flavor development. Tasted almonds and honey with a smooth finish. Not the absolute best I've had, but definitely solid. Would buy again.
The Montecristo Petit Edmundo is a respectable petit corona. Nice notes of almonds and honey, decent construction. However, I found it a bit one-dimensional compared to other Montecristo offerings. Not bad, but there are better options in this price range.

Good cigar but expected a bit more for the price. The Montecristo Petit Edmundo delivered on flavor (almonds and honey) and construction, but lacked the complexity I was hoping for. Solid smoke, just not outstanding. Still enjoyable.
