Kenfessions: The Final Robusto Rumble!

[Ken Gargett]

Robusto Rumble – Partagas D4 (Vintage Collection) SEU Nov 04 – Glenfarclas 30-Year-Old Malt - James Squire ‘150 Lashes’ Pale Ale.

By Ken Gargett.

 

The final cigar for the Robusto Rumble is one from the depths of my own humidor, one of my very last from this box. And what a cracking box it has been – the Partagas D4 (Vintage Collection) SEU Nov 04. Looking back over notes, there was an 89 and one or two 90/91 scores but most have been 94, 95 or 96. Can’t be unhappy with that. 

Love the Partagas D4. If someone said we are drawing lots for cigars for the desert island and you can never smoke anything else, if you got the D4 then you would not complain (well, you might whinge endlessly about being exiled to a desert island but that is a different matter). Might prefer a Lusi or a SLR DC, but I'd take the D4. And I would especially take them if they were all as good as this stick. It might just have been the best from the entire box. 

Draw was fine. A very pale Colorado wrapper. Cigar was in... continue to full article.
