Review Notes:
Make sure when you buy these....i mean invest in these...you see what you are getting. I smoked one out of a top notch Toronto Cigar Shop and it was the best cigar I have ever smoked. Chocolately, rich, yummy. Yet not sweet. Definitely full flavored yet subtle and cool. The wrapper was shiny and oily and nice.
The box I bought was crap. I wasted a lot of money on spent Monty's. Sometimes the chocolate comes through but most of my wrappers, even after 3 years in the box, just won't get oily and nice.
If it's oily and smells strong buy it. If not... don't. I made a big mistake in thinking these babies would come around in the humidor. Don't you.
I will rank based upon an average of my Monty's smoked so far.

Review Notes:
overrated in my opinion...this not at all a bad cigar yet there are better ones out there, like the Vegas Robaina Unicos, Hoyo de Monterrey DC and the Diplomaticos #2 (which are the finest in the world) and many, many, non-Cubans. Living in Europe I have unrestricted access to Cubans but non-Cubans are getting better and better.
Anyway, the construction, flavor, burn and ash will never mach a Leon Gimenes Sumo toro, a Cupido churchill, a Padron 6000 torpedo or a Hoyo Seleccion del'Arte Iglesias, to mention only a few....

Review Notes:
I'm obviously in the minority here, but I don't care for Monte #2's. After smoking many of them from different boxes, I've concluded that they are all hype. I don't taste cocoa, honey, nuts, vanilla, or any of the other flavors the other reviewers think they are tasting. I just get a flat, unimpressive, tobacco flavor. It's not that they are bad cigars, just that they are not anywhere near the gangbuster that everyone else thinks they are (to me). $10 for one of these versus $2.50 for a CAO Brazilia is a no-brainer in my book. Different strokes for different folks.
