I love these little beauties,which are in my humble opinion,just about the best petit corona around at present.Perfect construction,even burn,creamy mouthfeel,with touches of caramel,coffee and cedar,and enough complexity to keep the interest.Just finished one with a glass of Bushmills Millenium Irish Whiskey,there is a god.

Partagas Serie D No. 4 Cigar - Box of 25
by Michael
Currently working my way through a box from Nov '10.Simply sublime cigars! They're never going to win any contests for their aesthetic appeal but the true beauty,as it should,lies within the wrapper.Sweet spice and the classic Cuban white pepper,much as you'd expect from the marque,but also some glorious and quite unexpected Digestive biscuit (Gram cracker) flavours in the first 1/3 and beautiful dark chocolate notes weaving their way in and out throughout the duration.This smoke is worth every penny of the price.Spend some time with it,you'll be very glad you did!!

This is my first humidor, so I don't speak from experience! I am, however, meticulous in my research and spent a lot of time looking at various comments on various humidors to see what was right for me, and this came out on top.
I don't smoke a huge amount. Maybe 1 or two a month (if that), but obviously cigars don't take this into account - so I get myself a humidor after a particularly generous friend gave me several nice Cubans for my birthday.
The first thing that drew me to this was the burl. I love burls and this is a really nice one. It's darker than in the picture (a good thing) but has the same textured look and is very attractive. It has a nice felt bottom and sits on my desk rather nicely.
I was a little concerned about the analogue hygrometer (I've heard they're less reliable) so upgraded to the digital, which seems to be good. I was also a little worried that the humidifier hung down too far (it looks like that in the picture) but rest assured it doesn't. There's a good amount of space in there and the lay-out is nice.
The cutter and matches are useful to h

A fabulously mild to medium cigar for the beginner to Cuban cigars or for anyone who prefers a mild to medium smoke from the oldest Cuban cigar makers still in existence, So band on or off, this is a matter of your preference, if you want to remove the band DO NOT FORCE REMOVE THE BAND you will damage the wrapper and may cause the wrapper to unwrap, if the band will not slide off naturally wait until the cigar is warm and the glue holding the band has softened, When do I stop drawing? the answer is when you see wisps of smoke at the ash wrapper interface this tells you your mouth is full of smoke, How much of the cigar should i smoke? the answer is smoke the cigar until you don't like the taste anymore, the more of the cigar you smoke the more you are honoring the highly skilled person that made the cigar.

I highly recommend the Por Larranaga Petit Corona to the reviewer below it is mild to medium strength with a lovely sweet caramel and citrus taste and last 45 mins to an hour and has a nice gold band, been there and smoked the cigar you had Thought it would be an upgrade from the machine made Guantanamera Cristales of a similar price I smoke and still enjoy,I agree with you they are tasteless then tried the Por PC they are lovely so bought a cab and have never looked back, Por Larranaga is the oldest Cuban cigar makers still in existence est 1834 and highly respected by all cigar aficionado's
