I'm suprised with the results. I voted for the Petit Edmundo but I thought for sure the #2 would be in the lead.

Double Edmundo > rest.

my opinion only ... the especiale and the especiale#2 are a level above ALL other montys ... i would go #2 then the especiale . by the way ... there is no such thing as an " especiales #1 " . derr

Does the A not count as regular production? Just curious.

It is and it should. Part of the regular releases,No?

Edit :now I'm doubting myself. Need to check. Hope it's not being cut!!

There's only one montecristo in my eyes, the especiales nr 1. Fantastic cigar

I've not had an esp 1 oddly enough nor do I like montecristo much but the monte 2 from recent production was the best mc I've ever had. The esp 2 is pretty good, petit edmundo is alright, the 5 was good and the captain quintero ones I don't have experience with. If I could get monte 2s like the one mitchell gave me I would actually buy them.

I have been turned off to MC because of a couple very mediocre boxes of No.4 so I haven't smoked too many different vitolas from them. With that said, I do like, not love, the Esp. No. 2 and the No.5.

Well there are A few Monte's I have'nt smoked but I really dig the #4 and #2 when there on,it just depends on whats go'n on as to which one I smoke!

(To my taste) Most have a bitterness and vanilla tone

#2 when on has a deeper mocha

#4 has the bold tobacco with a balance of the above flavors

Had more good #4 than all the rest

To me the A is the best, but if it's being cut then I'm gonna have to sell some stock and buy a bunch of boxes. Haven't seen it around too much lately, and considering the price point I'm not surprised.

I moved the Monte A discontinued posts to here so we can get this thread back on track. :)

Thanks.

Would a 'red pig' alert be useful in such situations?

Edit: Nevermind. Found the post hidden in the quote :lol:

Yep, figured hiding it a little made it funnyer (and a bit safer ;))

For me it would be PE and a tie for the 2 and 4, but I only have HQ boxes and all are very good. I have never smoked the A nor the Esp, I have two two As that I will try soon and the esp is definitely on the buy list.

The number 2 with a boatload of time usually turns into something magnificent. But if you want good young sticks. The esp. No. 1 is always excellent.
