I opened the humidor tonight, as I was surfing the forum checking out what was new with everyone. It grabbed my eye with the simple Monte. band and perfect, light wrapper. I wanted a torpedo so I grabbed it and cut the end and proceded to my "smoking porch". The prelight draw was nice but a little firm, and had nice tobacco flavors with a hint of caramel. The wrapper was one of the most beautiful I have seen. A light, smooth, almost oily wrapper. Well I toasted the foot and lit her up. It was very mellow from the get go. The draw was a lil tight but it opened up after some time. The beginning was a very distinct coffee flavor with caramel, and some leather in there too. This was a mild smoke for sure. But not too mellow to where you could not taste the different flavors. The second third really opened up as far as draw and I got some pepper and more leather, the coffee went away. The last third lost the leather a bit and picked up some earthyness and more leather. This was the first time I had a white label, but definately not the last. If you have not tried these, go get one. I would reccomend them in the morning or mid day.
