Partagas

Tighter draw than I prefer, but ok. Strong pepper on retrohale. Burn line uneven at start, but that was probably user error. Ash is pretty tight in first third. Center of cigar burned slower. Both the cigar and the smoke got much hotter in the final third. Overall the cigar is ok, but nothing to write home about.

Oh man, what a delightful smoke! Excellent mild, woody flavor pairs well with Zacapa 23 Solera rum. If not for the slightly uneven burn, this would be higher.

A creamy, mellow to medium cigar. The draw was a little tight but manageable. A very well constructive and consistence cigar. Throughout the 1/3, 2/3 and 3/3 of the cigar I had hints of nuts and leather with a hint of pepper on the back end. At times I had the taste of fruit. Overall a very good cigar that I will smoke again.
