Montecristo Montecristo No. 2 Review:
This Montecristo cigar is something to deal with. Those who prefer this brand, find in this particular model all the virtues from the Cuban brand, and those who do not know it yet, find in this stick the power of the best selling brand in the whole world.

Review #138: re: review 136:
i have a box from the LLN factory (Upmann?) from AGO '04 which have also been a complete disappointment.
the flavors are all over the map, but never good ones!! and they are almost at the 3 year mark. so it doesn't appear that age will help them. - Submitted by rascalbadmonkey on January 30, 2007
Review #137:  To reviewer 136: It might be a good idea to leave the Montecristo Nr.2 sit in your humidor for at least 6 months. It will get much better and yes, it is a smooth Cigar for sure, but it will get punch with age!
Smoked one last night and it was perfect, but it's no robusto. The ring is about 2 mm larger and therefore the burn temperature is much lower of the cone and therefore much smoother and naturally there is the length. Leave the box in your humidor for 6 months at 70 to 75% humidity and it will come out all right! Hopefully you appreciate the advice. - Submitted by schimahen on January 29, 2007
Review #136: Motecristo No.2 Box LLN NOV 04 I'm a big fan of the Cohiba Robustos and wanted to find somethings different and interesting... so I went ahead and got this box of 25 of this so-called "best-selling" cuban; had 2 of these from this box so far, I find it quite lite very lite actually very silky smooth, great consistency but no punch to it, no pizzazz, no gusto... nothing too crazy exciting, I don't understand what the rant & rave is all about... I don't believe I'll be getting more of these MC#2's... or at least for a whilst time. I just find it a bit dull/boring, don't know why it's the best selling/most popular cuban...? But I'll have to see after I smoke a few several more of these... I am hoping I'll get to appreciate them more as I get to know them better :) - Submitted by hendrik on January 28, 2007
Review #135: It has been almost a year since I had my last MC#2. I lmost forgot how it was. Since then I've smoking mainly Cohibas, but now thay I came back to my origins I must state that this is the best smoke I can have, specialy the first third- which in the longer vitolas have less power - in this cigar is truly amazing. I was reading a briefing while smoking, but I had to stop - there is no change of paying attention to the reading while savouring the cigar. To reviewer #130:NO WAY the comparison to the Bolivar BF which I've found dull on most occasions - Submitted by pvieira on January 24, 2007
Review #134: This cigar lacks consistency in all of the young boxes. But you'll find in almost all the factory codes available great potential once aged. I have never had a bad No.2 with at least a year of maturity on the box. I have had these in all forms including the box of 25 and 10. But the best of them all come in the 5 pack carton form. The carton form usually is offered as better deal. Check out Review #118 for my best experience which was from FIM OCT 05 box of 25. - Submitted by semery74 on January 12, 2007
