How does that compare to standard issue montecristo? Been wanting to pull the trigger but they are not cheap.
First the Vitolas (Style and Size) on all LE have never been produced by those Brands chosen in that years release.
They step up the brands profile and strength. Wrappers and filler aged longer. Monty flavor profile amplified.
Here is the write up review from Halfwheel:

Lol you could have gotten 2.5 out of it but I can’t sit still that long anymore. Still had 3 inches when I put it down. Not a bad smoke for the money. Got a few at $2 each.
Good to know I see them at CI all the time and always wondered what they were like .

Thank you. I think you and I both have been enjoying Havanas longer than the guys at halfwheel... but I do think they know what they are talking about. I read their review and it reminds me of many shitty rolls I've had from our southern brothers. I have boxes of bolivar CG, punch DC etc where it seems half of them are plugged. Drives me crazy. Hope you are not having that issue with the Dante. Should I pull the trigger?

If your source is trusted, why not. YOLO. Highly recommended, I've had 3 so far and didn't have a problem.
