Welcome to CigarSmokers!. Click here for a great FAQ that will answer your questions. Personally, I believe in the FAQ's advice to smoke until you no longer enjoy the individual stick. Some I've nubbed, others I stopped after getting a bitter taste towards the near-nubbing point. I can't speak much about the monte, but the macanudo is king of the mild cigars.
