Partagas Serie D No.6 Cubaanse sigaar - enkele

The wrapper is beautifully oily and the construction feels perfect in hand. Was a bit intimidated by its reputation, but it burned evenly and delivered that classic, rich smoke all the way down.

That first draw hit me with that earthy, leathery punch only a well-aged Havana can deliver, and the burn stayed razor sharp right down to the nub. The construction on this one was flawless, given the factory's been doing it since 1845, and it lasted a good forty minutes of pure, slow-burning bliss.

Pulled one of these out of my humidor last night and the construction was flawless—the ash held on for nearly two inches. That classic earthy Partagas profile came through perfectly from the first puff to the last third. Very pleased with this purchase.
