Julesgf Posted March 4, 2012 Posted March 4, 2012 I'm tempted to think the only thing worse than a great overpriced LE is a crap overpriced LE... I've had a few Monte Sublimes LE 08's recently and been really disappointed. They've been simple, one dimensional and boring... and tight Just had a Monte No 2 and I'm in heaven for half the asking price Anyone enjoyed that LE recently? Anyone want to swap a couple for something good? Maybe a couple of No 2's
winelover Posted March 4, 2012 Posted March 4, 2012 Hi Julian, what was the box code on your monte2? Sorry to hear about the Sublimes but as they are a purportedly highly rated LE I am sure dsome people would be happy to trade. BTW - did you realise that there is a private forum (within FOH) for these kinds of posts? G
Smallclub Posted March 4, 2012 Posted March 4, 2012 I've had a few Monte Sublimes LE 08's recently and been really disappointed. They've been simple, one dimensional and boring... and tight Same experience here, with 2 boxes from 2 different sources… Mine were not tight, they were turbo-chimneys providing a thin, bland smoke… I sold them. Good riddance.
Diamondog Posted March 4, 2012 Posted March 4, 2012 Have 3 boxes of them, had one last week was wonderful, fell in love with the stick the first puff I ever had off one...
almudawi Posted March 4, 2012 Posted March 4, 2012 Sorry to hear that mate. These have been gorgeous every time I tried them. If they are still available. Give me a shout
rp99pts Posted March 4, 2012 Posted March 4, 2012 If anyone would llike to trade for a few of those sticks or even a box, please PM me...
Lotusguy Posted March 4, 2012 Posted March 4, 2012 You'll have no trouble getting rid of them - they are in VERY high demand. PM me if you'd like to make a trade. I see you don't have enough posts yet to post in our "trading" subforum. I happen to think they are the best LE I have ever tasted. I still don't smoke them very often, though, due to the very large vitola which doesn't suit my preferences too much.
Julesgf Posted March 5, 2012 Author Posted March 5, 2012 Interesting, I'm definitely missing out then, I got 6 from a friend so I dont have the box code. Smoked 4 so far and all have been the same. Good to know most people have enjoyed them, I wont be so down on poor Monte. I'll swap them and be really interested to hear what someone else makes of the remaining 2. Cheers JF
maverickdrinker Posted March 5, 2012 Posted March 5, 2012 these are terrible smokes. i willbe happy to take them off your hands. seriously though, i think that they have become better recently, maybe coming out of thier sick phase. i found them great ROTT however, a couple i had last year (some gifted, 1 for my anniversary) were ok. had 1 a few weeks ago and it was fantastic!!!! hold them for awhile. i think that you'll be glad you did.
TankerT Posted March 5, 2012 Posted March 5, 2012 Each one of these I have had... has been a phenomenal cigar. Each one has been just fantastic. There are reports of a LOT of fakes on these going around.
