1979 Montecristo No.2-Dunhill......

I recently can across a BOTL that has a very extensive and EXPENSIVE cigar collection. We've become good friends and I asked if I could purchase a couple of sticks from him...my first choice were Dunhill Robustos(he didn't have enuff to sell) so he offered me this vitola.

MRN decribes this cigar as the following:

"Tastes similar to a regular Monte,despite some people saying that they are superior to a regular Monte".

Dunhill Seleccion Suprema No.2 6 1/8 X 52
Discontinued in 1982

This cigar was offered to my guests Clancy,Dartplayer and Caponi as our after dinner smoke. I lit the cigar and we each took 4 puffs off it and passed it around.

Overall appearance:
Silky, chocolately,firm with no soft spots.

Light up:
quick and easy, full draw that wasn't airy. lotsa smoke.

Ash:
solid white that we didn't dump until 2".

Tastes:
First taste was that of coffee beans,very full bodied and freash roasted. Upon my next puffs it changed to Earthy tastes,woodsy.
3 round it became Leathery......robust....bittersweet.

remember I was one of 4 that smokes this stick so I have asked the other 3 to add their expierences to this review.

Overall:
I was thankful to have had this smoke and share it with my friends. I can honestly say that it was truly a "once in a lifetime smoke". Even though I still have 1 more to go it will have to be a SPECIAL momment for me to torch that one.
