monte d 2005 el

[monte d]

only come in a box of ten but well worth the premium. a rich, even burning cigar which has aged nicely. the best monte out there, when you can get them.

I have them, but so far have been disappointed. IMHO, the 06 MC#1 is a much better cigar.

I will dig out one to review this week. Last time I sampled (January from memory) they were still hit and miss with some being cocoa laden and others bordering on flavourless. The burn was also a concern on most.

Looking forward to trying again

I must be lucky, because every one I've had is just loaded with cocoa and pepper. Truly deserving of the term, "bomb".

Had one a few days ago. A bit tight on construction. Quite tannic still. Despite 3 years of age, I don't think these will be really excellent for a few more years.

Since I was not completely thrilled with mine they are resting to see if they ever come of anything.
