Montecristo number.. who?

[cigarsam]

Following my failed attempt at buying a montecristo number 2 (accidently bought an Especial no. 2) the other day, I ventured in to the world's smallest tobacconist near me to purchase one.

Sods law they were all out, however I was advised to give one of these a try...

Does anyone have a scuby if it is any good?

I've had one of the small san cristobals and it was great. Nice light hazlenut, maple type flavour

Well if it's anything like that I might light it up tonight :thumbup:

I've been trying some of the lesser known brands recently and these suit me very well, lighter and very 'acceptable'

They're great, a lot lighter than the Monte 2 though. The Upmann No.2 is also worth a shot imo.

Yeah still need to try one of those, at 17 quid a pop I'm hoping this one lives up to other similar Cubans, lighter serves me great too!

Hey Sam. Very nice choice mate. A much undervalued brand if you ask me. I bought a few aged ones from one of the lads on here: Cigaraficionado
Might have one tonight in fact..

funny that, i prefer the h upmann no.2 over the monte 2!!!

btw sam, the monte especial no.2 is a cracking smoke, you'll not be disappointed............

Yeah had it the other day, really enjoyed it. Much stronger than I was expecting for such a skinny smoke!
