Partagas Presidentes Cigar - 1 Single
by Samuel
Seems that I am the only one to have something nice to say about this Cigar.
Let us talk about the Shape it's a blast from the past a shape that was very common during the 19th century and probably the only sort of shape you could get until around the 1930s.
Construction was Fine from what I expected from a Double Figurado.
Having cut the end I began to light with a Match as it seemed the right thing to do for such a Classic Shape from a Bygone Age.
Accompanying the Cigar I had a Glass of Bulleit Bourbon (I know Bourbon is shunned by a lot of Whisky aficionados but I find it wonderful for sipping with Cigars) The two Flavours of the Cigar and the Bourbon were a match made in heaven! The Strong Partagas Flavours that we've all grown to love married with the smokey Mellow Taste of the Bourbon.
The Ash held Surprisingly well for a Double Figurado and the burn itself was more or less even!
Overall If you would like a nice trip back in time by all means give this Cigar a try it is wonderful and the aroma from what my peers around me said it was utterly delightful!

As with Thomas really spongy construction constantly going out. Not much taste either.

If you are looking for an easy smooth cigar, not too strong. Then this fits the bill. A creamy and rounded taste. Great smoke.

Bought a box of these as i have before.Lovely robusto with great flavour and a long ash.Would recommend it with a large dram of Glenfarclas 105 40 year old.

Good cigars, but practically no resistance on the draw whatsoever - despite being very careful to only snip off the bare minimum from the cap - like sucking through an empty straw. I noticed these cigars have a very messy bunching at the foot full of large gaps and have a very lightweight feel in the hand, as if under-filled. Burned well however, with some lovely flavours. It reminded me in some ways of a good Sancho Panza Belicosos, only more complexity and richness from the second third on. Started very mild - woody, a little cocoa and sweet cream, but from the opening the peppery spice (especially through the nose) was quite aggressive for such a soft bodied cigar, slightly unbalanced in that respect. Developed to a solid medium body with some manure and light earthiness. A little saltiness and mild leather notes coming in in the back third along with a faint papery dryness and a little bitterness that lingered on the very short, dry finish. Finish was dry, woody and nutty. Certainly nice cigars but there are many better ones for such a high price.
