Review #47: I bought three of these from an 02' box let em sit in my humidor for about a month and had my first one this past weekend. The taste was pleasurable, as I enjoyed it with a few Remy Martins. Took me around two hours to finish and I believe the taste to get better as it went on. From what I remember it had a leather flavor like smelling and or biting on an old vintage bomber jacket. Taste was somewhat complex some spice and earth, kinda became smoother as it went on a little acidic at the way way end. Must compliment on the construction beautifully rolled, solid dark with a slightly oily wrapper. Good all around feel. No complaints except a little expensive. - Submitted by Jay D. on October 1, 2004
Review #46: What should I say about this Rocket... In few words, it's more than very good. While smoking this MC #2 you taste what Cuba and Habana is all about. PLEASE TRY IT. - Submitted by Samsum on September 30, 2004
Review #45:  Just finished a No.2,box Dated Apr04 with code LLN. Very well constructed, nice even burn and is filled with spicy, earthy tones. I am not struck on the last 1/3 of the cigar as it gets very strong. In my opinion this cigar is experienced cigar smokers. I have smoke a couple from my humidor in the last 4 months and the only way I could achieve a consistent burn, and easy draw was to remove the cigar from the humidor about a 20 minutes before lighting. - Submitted by Kevlar on September 30, 2004
Review #44: Frankly, in this reviewer’s opinion not a good Cuban: Although prepossessing and well enough rolled everything else falls into the less than satisfactory category. The most disappointing aspect is a distinctly acrid smoke, then there is a burning problem for the #2 regularly needed relighting, and while it kept a moderately even burn and the ash held fast, it still managed to sprinkle everywhere! I liken this experience to finishing an overly salted bowl of peanuts still in their jackets! Curiously, I was told the Monti #2 was a mild smoke rather like the Diplomaticos #2, but in my view it’s more like a Partagas, further the Diplomaticos #2 exhibited none of the recounted problems and is a very enjoyable smoke. Many years ago, I used to be a box a month of Monti's #1 or #2, but this re-acquaintance is reminder why I left that brand behind! - Submitted by jjme on September 26, 2004
Review #43: Just opened a box dated JUN 04 and had a great smoke. Looked great and smoked even better. Wrapper was a little light colored than expected but very well constructed with a nice oily feel. Burn was slow and consistent. Smoke is creamy, complex and smooth. It should only improve with age. After smoking both the Monte and Diplo No. 2's, I have to go with the Montecristo. It is not as full-bodied as the Diplo but not as harsh either. I like the smoothness and creaminess of the Monte better. - Submitted by Philip M on September 22, 2004
