Sucks you had a bunch of duds.
I haven't had any problems with 2019 to present production ones at all.

Happen to recall what year yours were?

2019 I believe. Seems like several were under filled and the box was going through a “sick period” for a while. A handful of the ones I had near the end were solid, and I’m pretty sure the box just probably needed some more down time to sort itself out. Will add a box of monte 2s to my purchase list and will give them another shake

smoked my way through one box of monte 2s, of which quite a few were duds. I am a big fan of the monte profile, though at this point I’ve preferred the Edmundos.

Agreed, the Edmundos are terrific and similar in taste... seem more consistent... but, that said, a recent no2 from 2020 I had was better. Sharper flavours and deeper cream and chocolate. Best no2 I've had in years. One of the best Montes I've had period. It may be a good time to stock up.

My first Club Allones from the box, terrific from start to finish, didn't require the perfect draw until my fingers got hot!

I'm fairly new-ish to cigars (huge hiatus after first getting into them) and this was stunning. First day of our holiday, sat on the balcony listening to the sea, it surely doesn't get much better.

I saw Rob mention rum earlier and got me thinking… time for a tasting. Belicoso is a MSA DIC 17

Digging into the singles box for final round of Ryder Cup. I have a couple of these mid 2000s No 2’s left. As good a day as any to smoke one.

2017 Dip 2. Had a monte 2 yesterday so the battle of the 2s continues. For me, I think the diplomaticos has the upper hand. There’s a nice twangy breadiness that I get out of these which is slightly sweet - I think that description of partagas sweet bell pepper does it justice. Good cigar, 4.15/5

I'm with you on this one.  The last monte 2 I had was meh, while the dips have yet to fail me.

Gonna see what this fat daddy is all about.

POL DIC 2010

Regretting passing on Alanis Morissette lawn seats tonight. She was playing 15 minutes from our house. I’m a fan. This fire pit PSD4 is making me feel a bit better about it. Isn’t it Ironic?!

San Cristobal la Fuerza… what a great smoke! Delicious pancake and molasses, with some floral notes to boot. Perfect conical burn and construction. Under appreciated this brand until now.

Mag 50. Perfect weather in Athens even at 6am.

First third was out of this world, then burn issues started and I had to relit every few minutes. I’ll give it some down time and try again 

Really enjoying the flavors of this Luis 

[williamthewolf]

Can’t stop w the D6’s! Tons of flavor when you don’t have tons of time.

Excellent Edmundo Dantes RE Mexico - interrupted by a rainshower ...

[Chibearsv]

Punch 898 and coffee that my assistant's grandmother grew, harvested, and roasted in Honduras.  Coffee and cigar both rich and smooth.  This is a winning combination.

Dunhill Signed Range Seleccion Suprema LE

Milder than I typically prefer, but very tasty and smooth.

Perfect draw, burn and construction

Pretty pricey, wont be buying any more, but was part of a nice one time splurge.

Very good smoke though

 

La Duena Petit Lancero No.7

Pretty tasty although a bit ordinary if that makes sense.

Excellent draw, burn and construction

Probably not something I'd be interested in buying more of.

Was a pretty good smoke, but just didn't do it for me.

Montesino Diplomatico

Pretty tasty but again, just sort of ordinary and didn't really do much for me.

Uneven burn, tight draw, and slightly peeling wrapper didn't help much either

[Ciscojohansson]

The capuletos is not bad but I prefer the propios. Although the price is ridiculous.
