Partagas Serie D No. 6 Cigar - 1 Single
by thomas
As one of my first dozen smokes it was definitely a short 30 minute experience as I was smoking on a cold, windy and slightly rainy lunch time.
The wrapper had minimal veins and had a green tint in places. I found that the cut even below the shoulder resulted in the wrapper slightly unravelling nearer the end. It didn't leave an unpleasant after taste like I have experienced form other cigars so I think it would make a great short lunch time break. Lots of creamy smoke and easy draw, which was a real finger burner nearer the end.
However, for me it wasn't really the cigar I was looking for. As for a
£20 per hour smoke I have had a similar pleasant experience from cheaper cigars of this size

I'm a cigar smoker and just started smoking a pipe probably more for quickness of a nic hit , so I bought this connoisseurs choice it's a nice smoke but it's a bit to mild for me ! Nice for an early morning smoke but if your looking for a night time after dinner smoke probably to mild will try something stronger in the Peterson range next time

I'm only an occasional cigar smoker so only needed a small humidor to hold maybe 6 or 8 cigars , this one fits the bill perfectly, quality is quite good and it seals pretty well . Colour darker than picture which is good in my opinion . I did get the analog hygrometer but ordered a digital one after , more accurate I think. If your an occasional smoker like me buy it , it's a great price and you can spend the money you save on cigars.

Partagas Serie D No. 4 Cigar - 1 Single
by Connor
The serie d4 has got to be everyone's go to cigar! It's up there with the monticristo no4 for consistency, construction is great and the cigar is always filled to the brim with tobacco. The aroma is a faint hay but don't let it fool you. Once lit this cigar is a power house delivering lots of rich smoke and yet once you take a draw and set it down there is virtually no foot smoke the only fault I have with the construction is the burn line as this stick has a tendency to burn very wonky,( a quick touch up will fix the problem) flavour wise from first light you get a real deep earth and a slight nutmeg taste, if it wasn't for the shade of wrapper you would think it's a Maduro due to the amount of power it delivers second third is a nice introduction to a coffee and coco that mixes very nice with the nutmeg and finished off with that deep earth. In the final third primarily the same flavours coffee is More proment with the coco dying out other than that same flavour profile as before also a strength increase in the final third. All in all a fabulous cigar and one that should be in ever

Pre light aroma is a faint coco and barn yard type smell. For this cigar I used a punch cutter and disscovered this isn't the best cutter to use as there is only one cap so make sure you use a guillotine cutter to prevent the cap and wrapper from cracking. After I had removed the tobacco from the cap I took a draw which was excellent with only a touch resistance.
First light flavours is a straight aged tobacco core with a hint of pepper on the retro hail the finish Carrys the tobacco taste and slowly develops into a creamy type of note.
Second third draw reveals a sweet coco and caramel on the draw with a slight pepper. The finish is still a creamy aged tobacco
Final third the coco has faded off with the caramel and cream on the draw the cream Carrys over to the finish along with age tobacco finished off with a slight liquorice.
Overall I love this stick full of rich desert like flavours the body is medium ash holding 2inch at a time with no burn problems.

I Picked up one of these from my local shop just to try one but left it in my humidor for about a month before smoking it yesterday, and I have to say it was one of, if not the best cigar I've had to date.
Pretty much everything was there that I like in a cigar:
- Medium/Firm draw
- Light to Medium flavour
- Burnt perfectly even without having to adjust
- Cigar itself felt firm in your hand
- lasted about 45 mins
- Under £10 (Bonus points)
I appreciate those features may not be for everyone but if you're a fan of the above then I couldn't recommend it more.
