Montecristo Especial No. 2. REG NOV 18 (MCRW)

[MigsG]

Enjoying the idea of a Montecristo weekend so much I decided to have another Monte after dinner.  Thanks to @Thirds for gifting me this cigar! 

Upon lighting up, immediately creamy with slightly sweet light cocoa and woody flavors. Nutty and spicy on the retrohale. Smooth smoke. I can tell this is a good cigar.

2/3 still woody and nutty and cocoa. More full flavor, medium to medium full. Very nice. I'm smoking faster than usual and the cigar is staying cool.  

The final third is mostly savory wood and nutty. Wish the cocoa was still around though. 

Not a bad smoke, kind of an anticlimactic ending. More enjoyable than my earlier aged Monte No. 5, no contest.

Scoring this an 87. It's still very young, that's for sure.

Maybe I'll review my beloved Open Junior tomorrow night. Those are smoking the house down! ?
