Montecristo Petit 2 thoughts?

[winelover]

I'm still not sure what it brings to the table that the petit Edmundo, #4, #3 or #5 doesn't already bring.

Why no straight up monte robusto?

Agreed. Not interested at all. Gimme a monte 4 for a high quality shorter smoke or even a petit edmundo.

Wish they made the P1 regular production instead. Monte has enough.

agreed! the p1 is a good cigad that when one smokes it, knows without a doubt that it is s partagas. unlike the p2...

if you like the flavours in the p1, give the presidentes a try. more robust and in your face, but very enjoyable.

Decent cigar. Better than the double Edmundo. Not worth the coin IMHO

agree with mbrody, p1 is excellent as is prezi

What Montecristo needs is a Churchill.

Agree, would even buy if LE or RE but it won't happen.

I'd love to try both, gonna wait until *****IT starts doing the petit 2 in singles then I'll pick up a couple of each and compare young and then after some rest.

We will be doing a Vid Review on it tomorrow

I smoked one of these yesterday and was entirely underwhelmed. Price aside the flavour did not do it for me. Quite bland and young tasting. Not comparable to even a mediocre #2.

Taking price into consideration makes this a total flop for me. I'll pass.

Just had one. Looked good with a plenty of oil and maduro wrapper. A bit tight but lacking in personality. Very forgetful. Glad I only bought one.

Had one last week. Was not impressed. Bland and very "chalky" tasting....if that makes any sense. Luckily it was gifted, so I wasn't out any dough.

I think an argument can be made that if a sample tasted like "straight wood" and/or "tobacco," it was probably rolled at UPE code, for all the reasons therein.

I had one recently, tasted like a larger ring gauge Especiales. Pretty good.

Had one just last week. Very good smoke however, not as spectacular as the regular Montecristo No.2 IMHO!
