Holy crap, that's 5 cigars in all from all of your reviews that I already wanted to try, so now I definitely am going to try them. Thanks for all the info! I have the Lot 23 and the Montecristo in the Humi right now, so I am even more excited to get them out and smoke them when they are ready. Thanks again and great reviews!
Smoke em' if you got em'
Nope, no dirt torpedo in there that I know of, but I do have a lot of cigars to smoke, so I might just find one yet.

Robusto shape(5x50)
Wrapper: USA/Connecticut
Filler: Dominican Republic/Brazilian
Binder: Dominican Republic
Drink: Iced Coffee
This cigar had a dark reddish-brown toothy wrapper and smelled grassy. Construction was solid. There was one pretty stiff vein, but it was not a problem when I smoked it. The cap cut cleanly. The pre-light draw was clear and tasted like hay.
After lighting the cigar a pretty large space opened up on one side of the cigar. I can only guess that there was a loose spot(even though I didn't feel it).
At first this cigar was very spicy and tasted grassy. Halfway down the spice just died almost to nothing. A taste of raw walnuts came out just after the spice disappeared. The taste of walnuts stayed the same and the grassy taste dwindled down. The taste of grass disappeared towards the end of the stick and the spiciness came back. Mild at first and continued getting stronger, but no where as strong as when I first fired it up. The finish of the cigar became oily. I thought it was from tar build up, so I purged to no avail. The oily taste remained. I smoked it a little it longer until I was hit by a really oily puff.
The draw on the cigar was cool for the entire length. It produced a decent amount of smoke that smelled mildly sweet and floral.
Over all this was an ok cigar. Not at all what I expected from Montecristo. Monte's are one of my favorite brands but I would pass up the club cabinet if any other Monte was available.
