LateApex Posted March 19, 2012 Share Posted March 19, 2012 Which 10er from the 2010 LE batch would you rather have, the Montecristo Grand Elmundo or the Partagas Serie D Especial? I have seen a relativity little volume of reviews on these smokes. Not sure which one is "the best", which one is smoking best now, and/or which one has the most ageing potential. Any advise or insight would be appreciated. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Puros Y Vino Posted March 19, 2012 Share Posted March 19, 2012 Monte Grand Edmundo. I love Partagas cigars, but this MGE is the hands down winner of the two IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DinoCop05 Posted March 19, 2012 Share Posted March 19, 2012 Well, I haven't smoked the GE yet. Letting them sit a bit longer since just receiving the box not long ago. But, I can say this. I've had a box of Partagas sitting and had my last one around Christmas of 2011. It was insanely good! Loaded with amazing flavors. It was the first time I've ever experienced licorice in a cigar. So, with that being said, the GE is gonna have to really perform well for me to say its the 2010 LE champ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barteur Posted March 19, 2012 Share Posted March 19, 2012 I really did not like the Partagas 2010 so i would say go with Monte Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

partifan Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 MGE is much better, the Partagas one is a slightly longer PSD4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orion21 Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 I have smoked quite a few Monte GE's and one Party 2010, so not the ideal sample size on the Party. However, I have quite a few boxes of the MGE and no boxes of the Party. I remember the party was very dark and felt closed. It might age really well, but the MGE is excellent now and will age beautifully. My choice would be buy a couple of singles of each and see for yourself.

sblevit Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 I have many boxes of both and have to go with the Party. They have really opened up over the last few months with an amazing mix of chocolate, cream and mint. For the clincher, my girlfriend really likes them too!

mk05 Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 Well I enjoy the chocolate, marshmellow profile so I stocked up on the Monte GE. You may prefer something different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
