Monte by Montecristo Jacopo No. 2 Cigars | Selected by Cigar Aficionado as the 2014 #9 Cigar Of The Year – Rated 93
Monte by Montecristo Jacopo No. 2 takes traditional flavor and infuses it with strength and vigor to create a medium-full cigar ready to thrill your palate. Drawing deep from skills developed over decades of creating many of the world’s most popular smokes, the fabled Grupo de Maestros has crafted this stogie to be the most robust in the Montecristo stable while retaining the brand’s legendary smooth and distinctive character. Filled with plump Dominican longleaf tobaccos and covered with a leathery Ecuadoran Habano wrapper, the true secret sauce of this vitola is the use of dual binders to really add some oomph to the blend: a zesty Dominican Olor and a thick, juicy Nicaraguan Corojo.
Announcing itself properly by wearing a bold black, red, and gold ‘MONTE’ band beneath the brand’s standard simple brown and white label, the hefty 6 1/8” x 54 barrel of each cigar will have your mouth watering in anticipation. Pre-light, the fresh scent of fresh cut hay drying atop loamy earth fills the nostrils, the tongue capturing hints of wood and cardamom. Billowing white smoke lush with roasted coffee, vanilla cream, and a faint bite of red chili pour through a smoldering Monte by Montecristo Jacopo No. 2, a touch of allspice detectable in the retrohale. Finishing with a rush of dark bittersweet chocolate, oak, and salted caramel, you’ll be reluctant to let go of the nub.
Whether you’re looking to take the art of cigar smoking to the next level, need a legendary stash for an upcoming golf trip, or just want a delicious stogie to go with that bottle of Bourbon you’ve been hoarding, the Monte by Montecristo Jacopo No. 2 has you covered. Consider adding even more reimagined classics to your collection such as the incredible Partagas Legend or even the mind-bending M by Macanudo.
