Damn! Just love these cigars! TJ turned me on to them. And they have the old-school label without the gold fleur-de-lis.
Do the more recent Petits come with the newer gold embellished bands?

Nom Nom!

I have a box arriving in the next couple of days.

enjoy brother, i have had a couple back in the day and dayum good.

Thanks bro. See you in Gunnison?

=p~ =p~ Very nice!

Been thinking about what to get when I place my next order, got some ideas from your last picture, this being one of them. I really like the Monte #2s, how are these compared to them?

Keep in mind, I'm not a hoarder like the rest of you guys, the only age they get is the age from not getting to them yet.

To me, the flavor profile is similar to the No2, which is also a favorite, but with a little extra umph. But don't always have the time for a No2 so I grab one of these instead.

Hands down my favorite Monte....consistently a winner. My 08s were one of the best boxes of smokes i've ever purchased. More cedar/wood notes in these than just the coffee & cream of the #2.

Nice looking box....enjoy em'!

I'll have to order some next time, they didn't make this order.

I ordered some no2s and no5s this time around. no5s have good reviews, and figured they would make a nice morning smoke. I've found that I prefer the smaller sizes in most cases due to time, so lately I've been smoking smaller smokes. I like to take the no2s golfing :D

I did order something based on your selection in your other pic though cacman, picked up some Super Partagas and some Boli PC..

My box arrived on Fri. Placed three in the humi and the remainder went in the cooler for a rest. I will wait at least a couple of weeks before smoking the first one.
