Montecristo No 2 PMS DIC 14 : Ode to the 47 to 52 gauge review week

[Cmelle]

Ah the Montecristo No 2. What can i say that you don't already know. One box gives you good cigars, great cigars, and absolute rubbish. I guess that means it's complex right? Haha 

This one in particular had a bit of a dry wrapper. The draw was tight. 

First light produced barely any smoke. Smoke was thin and wispy. Not a lot of flavour coming through. 

I got some toasted tobacco, cream and slight coco. But not a lot of it. 

I had to triple puff to get any flavour and smoke, as a double puff was not producing anything.

The flavours were nice but unfortunately due to the draw and the continous puffing, it burned hot. 

I didn't smoke this one too far down. I have had some from the same box that have been very enjoyable. Unfortunately this one wasn't among them

I can completely understand. Sounds like my recent Montecristo experiences lately (i.e. either glorious or dreadful). Thanks for your honest review.

Good review, shame it wasn't up to expectations!
