Mr.T Posted July 11, 2019 Posted July 11, 2019 I had one in the batters box but had to camp at the office too late. Made a late inning substitution to a RyJ short Churchill. The SJ will have to wait. Sorry to hear you weren’t able to enjoy it l, but the R&J SC is a very good stand in option ...I hope you can enjoy the SJ soon...my daughter is away at camp for the week and it’s just the wife and I so I have plenty of batters at the ready Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1

Popular Post JohnS Posted July 11, 2019 Popular Post Posted July 11, 2019 Partagás Lusitanias UEB Jun 2018 The Partagas Lusitanias is perhaps up there as one of my very favourite Partagas vitolas, it's just a pity I don't smoke them too often. The reason? Simply because they take a minimum of 2 hours to smoke! This 'Lusi' was picked up in a quarter pack offering from a 24:24 listing this year. I was both surprised and pleased how 'colorado red' the wrappers were on each of these, so I let them rest and today was the day to try one out. This cigar was interesting to say the least. It wasn't the flavours as they were quite satisfactory. Partagas sourdough, milk coffee, leather, a little paprika spice and caramel-like sweetness (what El Pres lists as nougat) was evident throughout, rather it was the ash. You see, a standard cigar will burn around the ligero leaves in the centre, that is if it's larger than around 38 ring gauge and it contains ligero leaves, and in doing so it will leave a slight cone shape as the ash drops signifying that the seco and volado leaves around the core burn quicker and hence drop off accordingly. Sometimes a well-constructed cigar will ash off in seemingly perfect inch-long cylindrical tufts, this cigar just ashed as it went. The ash was never longer than 1/3 to a 1/2 inch in length, and this only happened 2 or 3 times, usually the cigar flaked white ash, yet flavour-wise it was fine. What causes this phenomenon? There are two reasons mainly; one, the minerality in the soil of the leaves used was higher than normal or two, the ligero leaf in the centre was not rolled into the core correctly. If it was the second reason then you are likely to find some tunneling going on as you go, but this wasn't the case. No matter, I enjoyed this Lusitanias and I hope to smoke another when I get the opportunity. 24 1
