almudawi Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 Hi guys, I picked this box a while back and would like to find out more about this particular series.. I have searched the web for quite sometime yet the information on Partagas de Partagas is quite scarce.. Any bit of info would be appreciated. Cheers guys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colt45 Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 They are a Dalia which were discontinued in 2003. I smoked the last from an '03 box a few months ago. I enjoyed them, finding them a bit smoother - a bit more vanillin - than cigars like the 898 or Serie du Connaisseur line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have been fighting the temptation ever since I bought the box. Might give one a taste sooner than I expected.. Thanks lads for the cigar reviews link but I have actually read all 3 pages before posting here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tarks Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 From the vintages I have smoked through I found them all to be flat. I think I still have some from 98, 99 and 00 somewhere in the depth of one of my coolers. Hope you have better luck. Let us know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChanceSchmerr Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 I've had a couple. They are more floral and fragrant (though not excessively so) than other similar cigars in the Partagas line, I've found. A box from '96 like that would be quite smooth, however! These have never shown much bite to me, especially given the age they've had on them, since they are long discontinued. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shrink Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 I've smoked from a few different boxes from the late 90's, 2001 and 2003. Some have been blah, others quite spicy. But all displayed the classic Partagas profile. I much prefer the 898V's. Hope that yours have some juice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

almudawi Posted February 20, 2012 Author Share Posted February 20, 2012 June of 96' aint a bad code...not bad at all. Hope they were stored correctly, enjoy! Well, the box was purchase from LCDH Bahrain.. They have a well kept walk in humidor. So there is no issues there... I hope I guess I'll have to post a review on these soon given the different views on this particular release. Thanks guys for the input Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
