El Presidente Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 I was joined by PJ (Pete) and Munts (Brandon) for a midweek review of the Monte Petit 2 on the deck. How will it pan out? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

El Presidente Posted February 27, 2014 Author Share Posted February 27, 2014 HOLY CRAP!!! What was that SHIRT??!! Did you see that thing?! What the hell color WAS that??!! Gotta turn down the brightness on my monitor . . . Um . . . was there a cigar in there somewhere . . .? I mean, did you see that SHIRT?! Zoweee! love that Shirt ...bought at Joe Banana in Sydney....famous menswear shop in Oz From memory it was purchased when i was staying at the Hilton. I woke up in the morning and after showering I noticed that the shirt I wore out the previous night was missing. i thought it was strange, turned the room upside down but no recollection of where I put it. Popped in to Joe Banana across the road and purchased the shirt in the Vid...a masterpiece that I refer to as "Kermit". I found it the original shirt when checking out....it was neatly folded on the Hilton concierge desk. Apparently after a night on the town with the lads I took it off in the foyer and left it there...ever one to save time I may have thought it best to get a head start before showering and bed I have a phobia with shirts after a night out. I remember well coming home at 4am, Managed to open the front door of my house after 30 minutes ....and took another 30 minutes to get through as I somehow thought my sleeves were too large to fit through. not everyone can carry off fluro green 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AbuAmelia Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 Wish I would have seen this review before buying two 15 count boxes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Munts Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 It is always a pleasure being on the deck, even with a mediocre cigar. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptainQuintero Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 Loved the review, longer is always better Everyone I've spoken to has had pretty much the same experience. Almost as if it's cigar made by the lowest bidder. The monte #3 revolution is gathering pace! :D They only put ugly wrappers on them to hide the gold inside :S Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptainQuintero Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 It is always a pleasure being on the deck, even with a mediocre cigar. I loved it at around the 9 minute mark when you were looking through the rest of the box, just a look of utter disgust on your face Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KoreanCowboy Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 From the looks on your faces toward the end, I can tell that your scores were very generous. On a 100 scale, a mid 80's is still passing and given the video it looks like these should have been in the high 70's. Thanks for the review and I'll definitely pass on these for quite some time.

bigbwalls Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 Great, honest reviews. I'll be staying away from that stogie. Thanks for the heads up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveGriff Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 I was surprised that you guys gave a 80's rating. I've not bothered up until now to smoke a Petit No. 2, and on the back of this review, I'll give it another year or so before I decide whether to buy a single or two Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CUBANO Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 Thanks for the telling like it is. Just another marketing ploy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Munts Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 I loved it at around the 9 minute mark when you were looking through the rest of the box, just a look of utter disgust on your face What I was thinking at the time, and what I said but was not included in the video, was about how disappointed you would be if got a parcel and opened it up and saw these cigars. They just looked so ordinary. Just no excitement there at all. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bogglor Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 This was the type of review I have been expecting for these things. When they held up the Petit next to its big brother side by side, it really did baffle my mind that Habanos would try something like this. I won't be seeking any out, not even to try.

Orion21 Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 I'll pass. Thanks guys. Just another reason to stay with the oldies, but goodies, like the Sancho Panza Belicosos and BBF! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
