Juan Lopez 2 - I've never been a big fan of these young. We'll give it a shot though since the newer cigars are supposed to be more approachable.  Nice rosado wrapper. Fairly open cold draw.

Juan Lopez No. 2, these have been top 5 for me 22/23 production. Im assuming this is a ‘24. Cold Draw: I had a few beers and some scotch before this cigar it may have dampened my taste, I didn’t

Monte 1 - one of my favorite cigars Firm draw on the pre light. Opened with a smooth, even draw and perfect burn. Classic Monte notes of dry baker’s chocolate and a hint of roasted coffee bean. U

Montecristo 1

Unfortunately, I cannot get my picture to upload. Its just black.

Cold Draw: Some cocoa notes but not much going on. The draw seem pretty tight but not plugged.

1/3: Cocoa, coffee with cream, a touch of Cuban twang. Im also get a fresh flavor at the end, maybe mint. Note a lot of smoke production but enough to keep me happy.

2/3: Cocoa and coffee notes have gotten a touch darker, some cedar is starting to show. The profile has gotten a little sweeter and really rounded out. The draw has opened up some more and has better smoke production. 

3/3: Cocoa, bitter coffee, cedar. No sweetness to be found. Unfortunately my cigar decided to self destruct halfway into the final third and it was time to put her down.

Final Thoughts: I enjoyed this cigar, I knew it was Monte DNA but still unique. Great balance of coffee and cocoa and a fairly consistent profile throughout. A cigar doesn’t need a complex profile when it delivers the basics. Minus the cigar wrapper blowing up near the end I rate this 90/100
