Partagas Presidentes

[COJ]

Is this vitola also discontinued?

Or is it a regional blend?

Only place I see'em is when I do a trip to Germany.

And its well over a years since last visit...so I'm all out of'em now. :-(

Anybody else who likes these?

I have been going through a box slowly. Sweet Partagas flavor. Cant seem to get a correct burn on them all the time.

The older , pre 2000 ( I think) were reminicince ofthe old style flavor., but blend changed some. More refined now.

I have been enjoying a box from 2004. While older ones did have burn/draw problems, these have been perfect. Nothing fancy with this vitola, just strong peppery flavor.

As far as I know, these have not been discontinued. Several vendors have them.

i like 'em. not one of my favorites , but i like 'em.

i have about 6 left from a box i got in '99.

i agree , a lot of them had a bad , uneven burn , but as the years wore on , they seemed to correct themselves..... i smoke one maybe every other month or so ...

good partagas flavor. i like them much better if you can get a good price on them ..... to much other better stuff out there at full price.

Still produced and available.

Straight laced Partagas flavour. No great complexity. A history of poor construction at least in the period 98-2003.

I will try a recent release this week and post a review.
