Hmmmmm - update to the post below. Had another Monte 2 a couple of weeks later and - surprisingly - nowhere near as enjoyable. Think I understand the "smile on the dog" post below, now. Don`t get me wrong, still an excellent smoke, when they`re right, they`re very right. When they`re not quite…
The pyramid sized monte #2 was a great cigar and had a mass smoke .the cigar I smoked was a bit loose so had a bit of hot smoke a the last two inches.The cigar had a complex smoke,I recomend these cigars after a meal with cognac or after a late lunch when readin the newspappers.

A very easy smoke. While it may not live up to its hype, its medium flavour, subtle tastes make it such a nice smoke. I think thats all you can say about it. Forget the hype....Its nice !

The No. 2 ranks at the top for its complexity, yet consistency seems largely hit or miss. These are some of the best - and worst cigars I have ever smoked.

A ton of hype goes along with this cigar. Some of it is to be understood, some of it is a little much. No matter what, it is one of the more famous cigars out there, and a good smoke at that. One can see why many enjoy this stick.

What do I care if a cigar has a hint of this,a splash of that, or an aroma that smells like I have old donkeys in my living room for two weeks.The Montecristo No.2 is one helleva smoke!
