n2advnture Posted June 2, 2005 Posted June 2, 2005 Here is the review I wrote for VCC, as you can tell, I liked it a lot. Partagas Series D No.4 Reserva Orgin: Cuba Box: #1446/5000 Size: 4 7/8 X 50 Well, I had an opportunity to fire one up this afternoon at my sister-in-law’s 40th birthday party. It was mid 80’s, a little on the humid side and extremely over cast. At one point I knew I had to fire it up or get soaked while smoking it. So I began. Here are my conclusions. Construction: Excellent. It was firm and had a nice resilience to it when squeezed. Definitely not under filled which seems to be the response to the draw problems of the past. Wrapper: A medium to dark caramel with the tinest of veins. An occasional medium sized vein running lengthwise. Pre-draw: Perfect with excellent tobacco flavors Burn: Near perfect. I had to touch up towards the mid point but keep in mind I have only had these a couple of days. Ash: Color was a medium-dark graphite with touches of black. There were noticeable white/cream colors specks like salt dancing on the outer most layers of the ash. Flavors: I couldn’t really break this down into thirds like I usually like to do. While it was not an EXTREMELY complex smoke with each draw, the flavors changed around a lot. So I will try my best. Started out with touches of floral notes and a blast of creamy vanilla for the first 2 draws. Then the typical Partagas profile with earth, leather and spice wrapped in an excellent aged/smooth tobacco flavor w/ an excellent twang. Approaching the first third there was a lot of cedary woodiness and dashes of white chocolate almond amaretto type of flavor. The latter didn’t last long but was very good. I would classify it as medium+ in body. There were tons of fairly rich smoke through the entire stick. My only complaint was it turned a little flat approaching the nub (about 1” from the end). Excellent aged tobacco flavor from beginning to end. Conclusion: An EXCELLENT smoke. They hit the nail on the head with this vitola. Perfect…well almost. Read on. It is definitely an elegant & smooth smoke that delivers a ton of flavors wrapped in a medium thick smoke with great aged tobacco flavor. I would go as far to say that these beat out my two favorites, the Monte Millennium and Cohiba Reserva Piramides. I don’t know why but that’s the term that grabs me when I smoke these three smokes is sophisticated (and/or elegance). Is it worth $7+ more per smoke compared to the Monte Mill? Having smoked jars of Monte Mills...maybe. But I can only speculate that if the cornucopia of flavors marry and become more complex with age, that this could be the best non-regular production cigar ever made. I know, that's a tall order so keep in mind there the overall experience of the reviewer (1 ISOM/day on average for 2+ years). To pay and extra $6+ (comparatively) now to smoke is probably not worth it but give it another 3 years and who knows… I can't wait to see how others chime in on these. Enjoy! ~Mark
manny816 Posted June 2, 2005 Posted June 2, 2005 » How much?? Way too much for me ! Thanks for the great pics and review. This is about as close as I will ever get to one.
El Presidente Posted November 15, 2008 Author Posted November 15, 2008 All out but hopefully another shipment not too far away. I took these pics before the last one shipped out.
