Montecristo Platinum Habana #2
"Sadly Dissapointed"
I purchased five of these and stored them in my Humidor for at least 2 months. The first cigar fell apart halfway thru the smoke...waited a few more months and smoked the 2nd and the outer leaf of the cigar fell apart before I was 1/3 of my way thru the smoke. I expected a lot better for a 1999 Vintage Cigar.

"Great Smoke. Could have a bit more aging"
Outstanding smoke for the price. Shared with other smokers who thought they were great.

"Always on Hand!"
At this price point I don't see how you can find a better cigar. Smooth, great draw smoke em' down to the nub. Not a stick that will blow you away, but well worth keeping some in your box.

Montecristo Platinum Robusto
"Superb All The Way Around"
I have a more detailed review of Platinums posted for the Rothchild. The Robusto matches the Rothchild in every respect. The only real difference I see is the Roth comes in a tube. I highly recommend Platinums to anyone looking for an every day medium bodied stick.

Montecristo Platinum Rothchild
"Best Montecristo for the Price"
I had been looking for a good medium bodied altnerative to my Padrons (I disagree with the reviewer that said these were full bodied - Olivas are full bodied). The Montecristo Platinum Rothchild (or any Platinum) is my answer!! For me, this is the perfect stick with morning coffee. Very consistent, no bitterness, even down to the last inch, superb draw, taste and flavor have subtle nuances, and remains smooth and mellow to the nub. These sticks occupy a place on honor in my humidor, next to my Anniversary Padrons!

"Decent smoke but not on my wish list"
I have smoked two of these cigars in the past few months and have mixed feelings. The appearance is nice, draw is smooth and taste through most of the smoke is quite nice, but the burn is somewhat disappointing and the cigar loses much of its lustre after about 2/3 through.

"Boring"
I was excited to try this one after I got a good deal on it. It wasn't worth the excitement. Not much flavor, no complexity. Simply boring.

"Perfect Smoke,"
Did they fail to mention vintage 1999? What an addition to the Humidor. Montecristo "can not go wrong"

"vladvera@comcast.net"
Good cigar.But expected more.The strength is shown medium, but it actually full.Very full. The taste is beyond avarage (like Punch).Sore throat after smoke.
