PARTAGAS

If there is one building in Havana that excites cigar lovers above all others it is the old Partagas factory. You can find it at No. 520 Industria Street, just behind the Capitol building, in the heart of the city.

The factory was opened in 1845 by Don Jaime Partagas and was still operational until just a few years ago. It is now closed with plans to transform it into a cigar museum well under way. The Partagas shop on the ground floor however, remains open and is well worth a visit.

A Partagas is immediately recognisable by its deep, earthy flavour. The character of its blend springs from a selection of filler and binder tobaccos grown in the Vuelta Abajo zone and chosen for their unmistakable richness of flavour and aroma.

Partagas come in a wide array of shapes and sizes notably the Lusitania and the 8-9-8, a cigar that is named after the way it is arranged in its box.

But perhaps the best known of all Partagas is the Serie D No.4, the robusto size that formed part of the legendary Partagas alphabet series that dates back to the 1930s. In 2005 a Pirámide, the Partagas Serie P No.2, was added to the range, which has fast become the cigar of choice amongst lovers of full-flavoured Havanas. In 2011 the Serie D No.5 and the heavy ring gauge Serie E No.2 extended the alphabet series once again. 2014 saw the most recent addition to the range when the diminutive D.6 was added.

All sizes are ‘tripa larga, totalmente a mano’ – long filler, totally handmade.

SERIE D NO. 4

Many see this as the definitive Robusto. With its controlled, rich, complex taste and distinctive red and gold band, they have a good point. A pure bred Havana.

Tasting Notes

Well balanced and smooth, classic cuban Partagas aroma and construction. Wonderful. A king amongst Robusto cigars.

"Beautiful to behold, this good-looking robusto is made with a dark wrapper and a flat head. Floral notes transition to a leathery, earthy palate with touches of wood, honeyed tea and roasted nuts. The draw and burn are open and even..."

Fabulous smoke! Great burn, nice ash, best of all a hearty taste. Not to be rushed, this is cigar to savour.

Reviewed by Anonymous At 4 7/8" long, with a ring gauge of 50, the Partagas Serie D No.4 is a cigar of classic Robusto proportions. The typical D4 has a chocolate coloured, almost oily wrapper, and is firmly built (albeit responsive to a gentle squeeze), with very little surface vein. I find the D4 an easy cigar to light, and one that burns well; there is no unevenness, and, because the draw is free and consistent, you don't need to puff too frequently or too hard to keep it alight. As a result, it does not burn too hot, which, in turn, means that there is not the bitterness that can be found with some Robustos. It also means that the D4 produces a satisfyingly long, very light grey, firmly packed ash. Each easy draw fills the mouth with a good volume of slightly sweet smelling, bluish smoke, which is where the real fun starts: the D4 is, to my mind, of medium strength (although I know that many consider it to be strong), both in terms of the flavours and the tobacco 'punch.' The main attraction of this cigar is the way in which the flavour 'evolves.' On lighting, there is a rush of intense nutty flavour, with a touch of peppery spice. After a while, this subsides to woody then earthy notes. Towards the end, it becomes even sweeter, moving into subtle cut grass tones. Throughout, the flavours blend seamlessly, producing a complex but accessible taste; that is to say, it is a cigar that can be enjoyed by newcomers to smoking, but is also one which has enough depth to bring a connoisseur back time and again. Near the start of this review, I referred to "the typical D4," and I meant it - the very fact that these cigars are so consistent (in every respect, not just its physical characteristics) is another of the brand's strengths - at around £250 a box, you like to know what you're getting. All-in-all, this is a reliably well-balanced and tasty smoke, of an ideal size and strength to round off a good meal. This one is my kind of review. I like it the best. It gets straight to the point. There are several keys descriptions that give me the info I want........construction, draw, burn, taste. It allows me to make up my mind quickly as to whether or not I want to purchase one. Tastes are described in terms I understand, which I like in a review. I give this one a 9.5. Reviewer: Billy Hood Score: 9.5/10 Great review. Honest straight forward review of all relevant aspects. Made me want to pick up a box or two. I give it a 9 out of 10. Reviewer: Dave Hickey Score: 9/10 I liked this one. Very straight forward and descriptive. The one part he missed in the actual review was the burn of the cigar he smoked. but it doesn't sound like he had any problems or I would think her would have mentioned it. Reviewer: Mike Boucher Score 9/10 OVERALL SCORE: 27.5/30
