Partagas blends: Serie E No. 2 / Serie D No. 2


Recommended Posts

Hola folks! Anyone knows whether the Serie E No. 2 and Serie D No. 2 generally use the same blend? In other words, is it fair to expect that Serie D No. 2 ('52 torpedo) will use the same tobaccos as the Serie E. No. 2 ('54 robusto) from the same (ULA 14) box code? Many thanks.

"P2" of course, the D2 was an EL from 10 years ago…

Anyway, I have smoked two of these pretty boxes of five E2, and have found them much better than the P2, and much stronger. I can't see how the two cigars could share a similar blend…

P not D indeed. Apology, I was typing late at night. Thanks mucho for your helpful comments, merci bcp!

I was truly amazed at how flavorful and smooth the blend in the 2014 E No. 2 was (ULA). I am only unhappy with the fat robusto format and was wishing for a pyramid. I'll have to stick with E No. 2 to get that taste now.

Smallclub - in my box of E 2 I find a very clear smell and taste note of "caramel au beurre sale", like they do it in Normandie. I got that box at the Istanbul airport DF. Never ever had such taste in any cigar. Any chance you had a similar perception?

Love the E2 blend. Make one a little longer and a little thinner like that I'd be in heaven!

E2 is a very easy cigar, an approachable Partagas. I can't even smoke P2. My eyes start to roll back and I pass out...so strong.

Many people talk about the strength of the P2. I havent had one like that but am kind of looking forward to when i do! I haven't had the E2 but will have to pick up some single for comparison.

Im on the other side. Love D4 and P2 but can't stand E2. Only had two fivers (few left) but never got anything good out of it. On top of everything the size is not for me. Dont even know why I bought them, haha. No, they are not the same blend.
