Partagas Serie D No. 4 Cigar - 1 Single
by joshua
I purchased one of these from the chester store earlier this month, WHAT A CIGAR, I’ve sampled many great robusto cigars but this is definitely up there with the best of them , great for the medium to full strength smoker .

This is my second review of this cigar. Everyone deserves a second chance, after all. Unfortunately, I can firmly say that my recent experience was worse than the first (also, to clarify, Ive had four of these, but have only reviewed two).
From the outset, the draw was very, very tight. The first cigar Ive ever had where I could see, prior to lighting but after the cut, that the roll was so dense you could hardly see it – it was almost solid tobacco with no way for any air to get through.
The first few times Ive tried this cigar, Ive gradually trimmed until I was able to take a draw. This time, I cut into the first cap – nothing – the second cap – some draw. However, the burn was so uneven I was constantly fixing it. I could distinctly feel the unevenness in the construction between my fingers: very tight on three quarters, very light on the other. Not until (eventually) the last third did it even out (and I was completely bored with it by then).
It is very unfortunate though that the draw and construction are so bad, because I love the flavour . . . if it wasnt so much ha

Partagas Serie D No. 6 Cigar - 1 Single
by Robert
Wow. This one packs an almighty punch in a little package!
The D6 looks and feels great - as a previous reviewer said these are a thing of beauty as is the stylish, minimalist and contemporary packaging, particularly the black and red 5 pack.
With an almost perfect 50 RG and length - the D6 is well made and consistently provides an enjoyable :35 minute smoke.
They have a good draw and even burn, with flavours of wood, including some cedar and lip-tingling spiciness evident - with an unexpected hit of crushed black pepper coming at the end. There is a reasonable smoke output too and a pleasant aroma. I’d say they fall into the medium- full strength category.
They are expensive - their D5 and D4 stablemates are probably much better value for money and last a good bit longer - but nonetheless the D6’s are good. Pair with a Havana Club 7 and you won’t go far wrong...

A lovely well constructed cigar. Feels firm and holds it shape. Burns just right, first part of cigar tastes very earthy but mellows as you get to the halfway mark, basically in my opinion improves. Good tight draw, I would like to add I use a punch. Cigar lasted me a good 45 minutes. This cigar was in my humidor for a good 3 months before I smoked it.

So this was my first cigar and that might be why I had an experience like this. First off it was very hard to draw on, I had to suck super hard to get any smoke, then where was the flavour...or rather a lack of. The taste was not to bad but definitely unpleasant and left a bit of a burning sensation on the tongue and the back of the throat. The construction was brilliant however and burn evenly the whole somke even with my bad lighting. So overall not a good first cigar experience witch is a disappointing especially considering that this cigar is recommended for beginners on this website.
