sharks Posted February 27, 2009 Share Posted February 27, 2009 Great Review guys, liked the music intro.. nice touch Interesting reference to a Thai hooker or a blonde german nurse, geez they must be great cigars Seems all agreed though good cigar which will only get better.

Tampa1257 Posted February 27, 2009 Share Posted February 27, 2009 The rich peet, earth and chocolate/cocoa/mocha in a cigar this size in a medium to medium full body would be an Outstanding cigar! Something to lay down a few boxes for 3-5 years as they are still WAY TOO young to show their true potiental yet, even with the aged use of tobacco in them. Great review mates!

Colt45 Posted February 27, 2009 Share Posted February 27, 2009 Great job guys Given the girth of these things, I think I'd expect them to be as you found them - medium / medium light in body. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

semery74 Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 "One of the best Reviews yet!" Smithy, you really took it to a new level, it had great tempo, humor, and a clear conveyance of all characteristics of the cigar. I like the opening, especially the scrolling slideshow.

Bartolomeo Posted October 18, 2009 Share Posted October 18, 2009 Monte Sublime EL 2008 Dark, Maduro colored wrapper, velvety in touch but could be the ugliest cigar I have ever seen, had spikes like Ostrich skin, tightly packed Initial puff was chocolate, rich cocoa White flaky ash 82 min smoke time Easy draw and even burn, burn rate was slow Flavors included coffee, cocoa, mild-rich chocolate, tannins Stronger in 2/3 Solid Medium smoke There was a flavor of Nestle Quik with some heat which was very nice Smoke was thick and cigar a tad spongy even though I dry boxed for 48 hours Started off mild but not boring, very smooth Coffee with no cream/sugar flavors were present @ end of 1/3 Long tem potential is there but enjoyed very much today Love them now and will love them later 9.3/10 Bart Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thechenman Posted October 19, 2009 Share Posted October 19, 2009 Thanks for the review. Not only were these my favorite LE from 2008, but they are one of my all time favorites as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
