Review #130:

I have to say that I sort of share the same feelings as review#128. Not that this is a bad cigar. However, first things first: in my smoking career (I think we can all call it so by now) I tend to stay away from buying boxes of Montecristos. The reason behind this is that I realize that this is the most popular cigar name in the world (even to nonsmokers) and I have a feeling that the number of Montys rolled per year is extremely high. Take a look at how many reviews this cigar has (I see 26 pages of reviews) compared to other cigars on this website. In my humble opinion (and to keep this short) the chances are much higher to end up with a box that will end up being a waste. So when it comes to Montys, I stick with buying singles. Now, taste is not bad in this cigar, not bad at all, but sort of dull? But again depends on the individual. Personally, I would definitely pick a Bolivar Belicosos Finos over a Monty2 anytime. (Do note however that aged Monty2's are said to be phenomenal - on the other hand which Habano isn't?). - Submitted by PDL on November 23, 2006

**I wish more reviewers would offer the full factory and date code for what they are reviewing - it's both helpful and nice/interesting to know... Box from GKI 2004, only 5 sticks left now. What a great smoke. Smooth draw giving mouthfuls of creamy, flavorful medium bodied smoke. Great aroma. An hour and a half of relaxation and enjoyment. Man are the wrappers on these silky smooth! Great cigar, that like most every habanos I have smoked, they have a life of their own. This one can, if you are lucky, smoke thick and rich, full bodied when right out of the box 3 or 4 months from production date, then go dull for awhile and after 2 years from production they blossom back to a mellower, more refinded smooth, rich, flavorful smoke. For those newer to the delights of smoking good cigars, you have to learn what you like and to catch your cigars when they are in your "stage". Don't waste them when they are not. Means only one thing: You gotta keep procurring and rotating - a costly habit! (For fuller bodied cigar than these try Bolivar Belicoso Finos.) - Submitted by Dr. Wu on November 20, 2006

Review #128:

I realize that this is a VERY popular cigar but I honestly just don't get it... Not a bad cigar by any means but just boring in my opinion. To each his own I suppose. I'd get get a Partagas SerieP#2 or even an Upman #2 over this Piramide any day. Again, I'm not saying that I don't like it, just that I find it dull. Cheers. - Submitted by newbie on November 4, 2006

Review #127:

The only Monte 2's I've smoked were very young. Still, they had a remarkable smoothness on the palate, with a lot of spice, pepper, and wood. They have huge potential, which is why I put down most of mine. I suppose I'll need to re-review them in a few months. Nevertheless, they are definately enjoyable straight out of the box, which is more than you can say for some cigars. - Submitted by theworldover on November 1, 2006

Yuk! all MC's leave a nasty metallic taste in my mouth and this is no different. Not saying it's a bad cigar but it just doesn't agree with my palate. Why are there so popular?? - Submitted by herf-head on October 10, 2006
