Montecristo No. 2 Cuban Cigar Review

[MegaChairmanMao]

Viva Fidel!

[XxStonedKillerxX]

You dont inhale cigars, am i correct?

[ximinezcardinal]

this should be a review???

awful.

[ismailishot]

You still have to cut the cap off pyramid cigars, right?

[snipeyoass420]

go to cubanlousfor cuban cigars in the u.s

[luigibattista10]

It's a shame I can't smoke anymore.. I used to smoke cuban cigars everyday since I live in Mexico (from La casa del Habano), but my doctor told me to quit. I miss them. I have smoked like 200 Montecristos N°2 in my life and all of them were heaven on earth.

Sorry for my english. Greetings! (:

[outsider0100]

Where can you buy these? arent they illegal or something because theyre from Cuba?

[skateboarderaddict]

@outsider0100 only illegal in the us they legal everywhere els tho

[PhotoLabMP]

How do know what to look for before you purchase Cuban cigars? How can you tell genuine Cubans from counterfeits?

[juicy8956]

@PhotoLabMP go to cuba and buy it yourself

[PhotoLabMP]

@juicy8956 You have no future in Stand-Up comedy...

[juicy8956]

@PhotoLabMP kcoolstorybro.

[slickmodz]

@PhotoLabMP you will tell the difference in taste and the way they are rolled, real cubans are packed very very tight, my friend sold me a counterfeit one and im cuban, my grandfather was a roller in Cuba and move to the US as a roller he gave me a couple before he died and i still have three of them

[fdisku]

Taken from a reputable site.

94 -- Montecristo No. 2

There's nothing quite like it. The Montecristo No. 2, sometimes called a torpedo or a piramide, represents the best in Cuban craftsmanship. It takes years to master producing this tapered cigar, called a piramide by the rollers themselves. Whatever you call it, it is a bombshell of a smoke, packed with spicy, rich flavors that go on and on with each puff. The Montecristo No. 2 measures 6 inches long and averages about 52 ring gauge thick.

[283BPG]

I bought a box of H. Upmann #2 pyramids....They are supposed to be very similiar to the monte Anyways they are unbelievable they are a must try for anyone that loves habanos

[asen932]

Oh, my mistake. The guy in my local cigar shop calls them piramides so I presumed he was correct.

[asen932]

Oh, my mistakw

[asen932]

They're called pyramids ( piramides). Torpedo is also used to describe this shape occasionally.

[PappeH]

Actually, the pyramid and the torpedo are two different shapes. A pyramid gradually tapers down the length of the cigar, while the torpedo is straight. They both have the same cap on the head, but these are indeed torpedos.

[miniman631]

complete novis here

are those called torpedo cigars when the end is like that??

[mrfantastic111]

I'm from Australia and I have to say that whatever ban that you American's have on Cuban cigars is just poor... The pressure you guys put on other nations to ban them makes them so much more expensive for people like me. In Australia I have to pay up to $50 in a store just to buy a decent Cuban.

[buaidh2wolves]

@mrfantastic111 i agree,also land of the free my ass!!!

[alibaba4374]

going cuba im a newbie in cigars which ones are best tryed these ones before they ok

im new to cigars thou ,however my home work tells me to invest in a box of

"cohiba behike 54" the box is well impressive to

im guessing they are going to cost me a arm and a leg even in cuba :(

[jamezxh]

Yum!



[Killinemdead1]

im calling the police those cigars are illegal

[TheJer1963]

puffing away on one right now. They are one of the best cigars in the world.

[vaninvents]

Hey guys what do you think about the Romeo y Julieta Nº2? I just smoked one for nearly an hour and im quite dissapointed

[mrfantastic111]

@vaninvents Depends on your luck, you might of gotten a bad blend because it's definitely not a bad cigar. They're not hand rolled, they're machine made which I will admit is always a gamble for quality.

[royalstarfish17]

best cigar i have ever smoked.

[loljokes1231]

@royalstarfish17 they are the best arent they. it was my first cigar

[colewiebe]

Consistently wonderful... love these cigars.

[666CaoCao]

Cannabis use to be llegal in the U.S but the mexican trade grew the U.S gov re-named it to 'Marijuana' which was originally a mexican tobacco leaf.

[DantesDeamon]

how much ?

[HomebrewCigarsmoker]

I thought you were going to review this cigar???? Where is the review??

[Joshmontero]

many americns go to the carrabian, and there they have A LOT of cubano cigars

[cmpilot]

The only reason Cuban cigars are illegal in the US is because US-based organized criminals didn't like getting kicked out of Cuba and replaced by Cuban-based criminals.

[cmpilot]

Real Americans don't let their government tell them what to smoke.

[666CaoCao]

@cmpilot Unless it's U.S gov made crack or fresh opium straight from Afghanistan

[dangolf1890]

Although the Montecristo No.2 is a great cigar, it is no match for Cohiba.

[conewells]

Hey, all you paranoid fuckers in Washington, DC, LIFT THE STUPID EMBARGO!!!!

[SacredReviews]

when i need a cigar my friend can get me these and he gives me 5 and i give him 8.50 is that a good deal?

[Ben1238]

@SacredReviews If they are cuban montecristo # 2's then yes. That is a good deal.

[endomedico]

Yes I have tasted Opus X From Arturo Fuentes and I think this cigar is over valorated due to a very inteligent strategy making this cigar something dificult to get,

[loppari]

Can a narrator be any more boring than this?

[quantana927]

I personally think Cubans are over-rated. Yes, they're good, some of them being the best on the market. But there are Dominican Republic, Honduran, Nicaraguan, and others legal in the US that rival them. They also cost a lot less.

Yes, Cubans are good, but they're also a lot of hype.

[manchiscap]

@quantana927 but none of them tastes like a premium cuban.....none. I love padron, opus an other premium cigars but when it comes to the best cigars in a top ten there are all cubans.

[jaylpp12]

You should review the sancho panza sanchos, great cigars great price lasts for hours

[cubanfotos]

For great assortment of Cuban Cigar shirts and caps go to wwwcubanfotoscom

[uiwi]

Is it normal for them to sometimes have a slight box preaa...?

[snaggypaggy]

Ordered 10 of these.

[jrocjams]

almost 30 bucks for the cuban moti up hear...just got a box of romeo no.2

[chazyfizle]

big majestic motherfuckers

[lucatoscani73]

one of my favourites cuban cigars is montecristo n.2

[CigarsAreBest]

One of the best cigars i tried.

Very good draw, a bit on the easy side. Even burn with no touchups. Nice rich and creamy smoke. about an hour of smoking.

399$ for a box of 25 in the duty free store in Israel's airport.

[Ben1238]

I don'y understand. it looks like to me that when you see these cigars they are huge however, when you actually have a box of them they do not seem as big. Does the lens in the camera augment the size or something?

[GEARHEADGUY92]

i want one

[jamierocker1]

u americans feel pissed

[Ben1238]

@jamierocker1 Not really

[cbx25]

where do you get those from.

[intromix]

@cbx25 You can get them online, they ship right to your house (USA) ***BUT BE CAREFUL*** If you know the difference from counterfeit VS originals, and YES THEY ARE LEGIT, and the smoke/smell is PHENOMINAL.

[tingly7654321]

i want to smoke one with my dad when im old enough lol

[cnavaro88]

What are the cheapest Cubans I can buy?

I want to try one but I don't want to spend a fortune.

[gnarlydan]

i had one of these cigars just last week. best ive had by far. very nice aroma an taste.

[zkillan]

Great video, but the camera quality is bad :(

[TheLuxsource]

Very nice video guys

[truthpigdotcom]

Is it too good to be true for a box of 25 #2's to be sold online for $195.00 .

[Maxobillion]

Not necessarily. In Switzerland that's what they go for due to no taxes. This video is from 2008 so it makes sense to me. The same cigars go for over $400 at cost in Canada due to taxation.

[MrGeminiAc]

I bought a box a year ago when I were in Cuba on holidays,there cigars are splendid,I am smoking one now,thats why I decided to search in youtub for these and write this comment,the n2 its the best cigar I have ever smoked

[MrCigarEnthusiast]

These Cigars are awesome, I had a box a few years ago. So smooth, and the aroma was out of this world. Definetly give it 5 out of 5!!!!

MrCigarEnthusiast

[MrCigarEnthusiast]

Sorry guys, I had the box of Dominicans, not the Cubans. A lot of websites don't ship Cuban Cigars to Canada.

MrCigarEnthusiast

[Alberitano]

Do you need a cutter for mini cigar montecristo ?

[TheEndomedico]

Dominican cigars are no match for cubans habanos.

[Maxobillion]

You are 100% right. Every non Cuban is slightly off for some reason. They can never get that Cuban taste which I crave so much.

[Ben1238]

All I have to say is opus X from Fuente!

[Ben1238]

@TheEndomedico Fuente opus X gives them a big challenge and they are from the Dominican Republic!

[Ben1238]

@TheEndomedico Opus X is one of the worlds most sought after cigars and it is dominican.

[uiwi]

@TheEndomedico Ur full of shit m8 loool!!

[Ben1238]

@TheEndomedico Obviously you have not had Opus X. Many, many people around the globe seek these out every year. Camacho makes great cigars and are highly rated. I do highly suggest them.

[MrCohibaboy]

the dominican cigars are just as good , but they make them so damn tight , i hate cigars that get plugged up , if i had to choose on only two kinds of cigar to smoke it would only be cigars from cuba and domincan rep, i have respect for dominican made cigars also i find dominican cigars to be special aswell

[profetaMosconi]

The Montecristo No. 2 is my favorite cigar

[rapper1234567898]

i wish i could have thos cigars

[IHavebuttCancer]

Can someone explain why a cuban montecristo is better than a dominican?

Do you like them because they are illegal?

I mean the climate in the dominican republic is the same as cuba

and the tabacco is not much different.

[snaggypaggy]

They aren't illegal in any other country but yours. You might want to do some research before you use that as one of the possible reasons people love cuban cigars. And seriously have you actually compared? Their are differences trust me..

[IHavebuttCancer]

name one difference.

Same climate same they are grown in.

[BullzOnParade17]

Despite popular belief, the Dominican Republic doesn't actually have the same climate as Cuba, although they can be comparable. Cuba has the absolute perfect climate to grow cigars. Also, it's the soil there that counts. I can grow tobacco anywhere where there's humidity, but shit soil will affect the health/taste of the tobacco.

[buddrumz]

true i think a lot of people think that way ... but for me cubans are not better than any other cigar , just different .

[SpearWieldingOctopus]

Illegal makes everything taste better :D

[sedod66]

ive got two boxes of montecristo number 4's, 25 in each box. does anyone have a rough idea how much i could sell them for??

[BullzOnParade17]

Probably about $120 USD each.

[sedod66]

great. thanks mate

[MrCohibaboy]

i came across the cuban jose l piedra conservas , these are very affordable cuban cigars , machine made by that it means inner fill is machine rolled but still in a way hand made , these were the best smooth cuban ive had it even beat the cohiba sigloIII that i bought in my opinion of course, very tasty cigar VERY

[skudlick]

Put your cuban seal under UV light to see if it glows pink in the middle and the six serial #'s will stay black but the two letters in the front will remain red. Open and enjoy. RE: a regular blacklight will work. DONT BUY GLASS TOP CUBAN BOXED GIGS IN FLA. FAKE FAKE FAKE

[intromix]

Us people from the states, all we have to do is drive to Canada for vacation (7 hour drive) and buy a box of Cubans and take the bands off and put them in a generic brand cigar box, and when you pass through customs, (if they happen to search your vehicle for anything taxable) just tell them you brought Cigars with you from back home,, they cant prove anything, its not like they can send a sniff dog to tell if it is Cuban embargo

[MrCohibaboy]

LOL a 7 hour drive huh , well its well worth the trip if your in the states , i didnt know you could do that , but they must get suspicious seeing alot of people bringing back cigars from canada , when customs see's that you have cigars in the car do they make you pay tax on them ? whats the maximum amount of tobacco in cigars are you allowed to bring over the border before you start paying tax

[intromix]

That part Im not sure,,,but if you get greedy and have 6 boxes of Cubans you either bite the bullet and keep them in the trunk (if youre good at not getting nervous during interrogation coming into customs back into US) which I wouldnt recommend,,,,, or have maybe 15 - 20 cigars (Out of a box of 25 and take the labels off and put them in a generic box, so if they ask,,you can tell them you are a regular cigar smoker and brought them WITH you going into Canada and coming back home to the states.

[HipHopTerminator]

Eh, I like the way torpedos look :D

[OSBSecurity]

I bought a box of these a few years ago. Probably the best Cigars I have smoked thus far!!!

Lt. Richard Boudreau

[snaggypaggy]

YOU REALY DON't HAVE A LIFE!!!

[wasd0ne]

is it true that old cigars taste better?

[doomsday800]

ya its like wine

[ezekielsuter]

they can be aged providing they are looked after properly in a humidor or something.

[cloud1strife]

Yes.

[dangolf1890]

@wasd0ne in general yes. It depends on the cigar's blend.

[elgallo55]

which one u guys prefer montecristo no. 2 or bolivar belicosos finos?

[tandogan187]

You know MC has No 1,3,4,5 in addition to No2. Do you know if the only difference between No2 and the others is the size, or the flavor profile and strength as well?

[MrCohibaboy]

everyone recomends the number 2's so they must be really good , ive had a number 4 and it was good but so damn peppery all the way through very consistant flavour did not change at all from the moment it was lit untill it was finished, not my type of cigar at all , i like creamy cigars with hints of peppery notes , but the number 4 was overpowering with pepper

[kartmilo]

They are real good, I have a supplier that can give the cigars into USA without no problems, all cigars in the original box, sealed. Call me 4074139266 I give you the information.

[Tux3d0]

u sure??? cus i dont wanna be involved with the black market

[haarsplizzXXL]

Just smoked some nice Cuban cigars - 'cause it's not illegal in Germany;)

Actually it's only illegal in the US... :)

[cmblues6]

actually if you have it in america already you won't get in trouble and you are allowed to bring a small amount back for personal use.

[frebuzo]

how many pieces could you bring?. any problem with 1p pieces

[deaglan1]

thats not true at all. you can't bring ANY amount of cuban cigars, or ANY other cuban product into the country. I brought a 5-pack of Cohiba Lanceros into the US once, and they were confiscated at the border.

[WanderleiSilva29]

@haarsplizzXXL Technically, its not just the country.... its illegal for an American citizen to smoke them.

[omerj2000]

@WanderleiSilva29 That's totally wrong. Its illegal to bring them into the country due to the trade embargo with between Cuba and America. Which states that things cannot be brought into America from Cuba. It has no bearing on nationality or who can smoke it. JFK himself brought in a lotta Cuban Cigars into America JUST before the trade embargo went through.

[moogle73]

@haarsplizzXXL Its actually not illigal to smoke cubans in the US, its only illigal to import them. But so long as they are already here, you can smoke them all day.

[moogle73]

@haarsplizzXXL Its actually not illegal to smoke them in the US, it is only illegal to import them into the US. But as long as the cigars are already in the US, you can smoke them all day there.

[junior4199]

@haarsplizzXXL ... look just becuz cuban are illegal in the U.S , it dont meen i cant get'em , now i got 7 boxs of cuban now.....and you dont know what a cuban cigar tast like

[Anonymous1226]

@haarsplizzXXL i live in the US and i smoke them all the time

[Paulisbell]

@haarsplizzXXL Is It Illegal In England?

[haarsplizzXXL]

@Paulisbell No, it's not.

[dangolf1890]

@haarsplizzXXL It's still illegal for an American to smoke cubans abroad..doesn't matter where you smoke them

[godzilla74114]

@dangolf1890 good luck enforcing that one if i go overseas.

[dangolf1890]

@godzilla74114 no shit dude. I do it everytime i go abroad. DUHHHHHH

[godzilla74114]

@haarsplizzXXL its only illegal if you get caught. >.>

[BodomConspiracy]

@haarsplizzXXL haa im canadian im drinking from 4 bottles of habana club smoking a esplendido

[stormycliffs]

@haarsplizzXXL not only illegal in the US, its illegal for all US citizens to consume them anywhere in the world! sucks eh.....

[donbomb92]

@stormycliffs Illegal for US citizens to consume them anywhere in the world? I doubt it. I always have them when I visit Canada.

[stormycliffs]

@donbomb92 thats the u.s law..... however it is hard to enforce

[thomasb90]

I've had a fair share of these. Pretty damn good...but sometimes they have a tough draw that I don't care for. When they are good, they are damn good.

[WCD73]

One of my all time favorites!!!

[BullzOnParade17]

Only problem with living in America is that it's hard (for me) to acquire Cuban cigars. That darn embargo Kennedy set...

[thatblackdude]

can u not buy them at fine cigar shops because of embargo, because i know i can order them from online

[BullzOnParade17]

Nah, I can't go into a cigar shop and buy a Cuban here in the States. Think you can message me the link where you buy them? I think it'll be difficult for me to get them into the states, because the embargo prohibits the bringing in of Cuban cigars, etc.

[gavbag1234]

Google top cubans.

Best site I've come accross.

I would've messaged you but other people might be wondering also.

[UpcomingJedi]

Where I live, you can buy some that just say they are cubans but probably not. They just label them as montecristos. I mean who keeps a montecristo on the counter in a plexiglass container right next to the bubble gum, drying out in the sun. No humidor or anything. Not even a wrapper to keep the dust off.

[freewayxx]

Probably the ones you have seen are the ones manufactured in the Dominican Republic.

[UpcomingJedi]

No, this is in Mexico across the border at the drug/liquor stores. I think they are fake, low quality leftovers that just get relabled to cheat all the American marks that go over there thinking these are true Cubans.

[BullzOnParade17]

You'd be amazed at how many fakes there are. Especially Cohibas.

[POLLOIDER]

Kennedy signed the embargo only after having secured a cargo of 1200 H.Upmann Petit Coronas for personal use :)

[MrCohibaboy]

yeah the fucken kennedy's i guess he pissed of a cuban cigar smoker in the states thats why he was assasinated
