Quick Smoke: Partagas Serie D No. 4 (Cuban)
Sunday, December 9th, 2007Each Saturday and Sunday we’ll post a Quick Smoke: not quite a full review, just our brief take on a single cigar.
This robusto-sized smoke is considered one of the most sought Cuban cigars currently being made. So I was surprised when it only got a three stogie rating due to seriously sub-par construction. Fortunately, my experience was different. While the burn was slightly uneven, overall construction was very good. As for flavor, after an initial bitterness the cigar blossomed into a tasty medium-bodied cigar, with cedar, subtle earth and a bit of spice. It went perfectly with a dark cup of coffee in the midday.
Verdict = Buy.
Definitely a buy on the Partagas, if u can get your hands on one that is and its one of personal favs! My birthday is around the corner, and a dear friend gifted me with one or two Cohiba Esplendidos. We engaged in the smoke last night - if u get a chance, I would love to hear what u all think about its smoking experience! I loved it. A medium bodied smoke and its aroma is sweet and cedar - cosmetically “A” class!
Have a great week Stogie Guys!
