Partagas Serie P No. 2 Cigar - 1 Single
by Daniel
Last had one in July on a lovely day and it was fantastic. Much prefer to Montecristo No2. I would highly recommend

I was given one of these cigars when I attended the August tasting evening at Cgars Great Yarmouth. At first draw I found it to be very earthy but upon smoking, it became more and more enjoyable. It was an even burn and stayed lit most of the smoke. It had hints of cocca and gave a bitter sweet taste, a lot like a strong dark chocolate. There was peppery overtones and was a very nice smoke. I had it sitting in the garden on a sunny Sunday afternoon. Because of the sweetness of this cigar, It would work well with a whisky that has been matured in sherry casks such as a Lindores Sherry Release Lowlands Single Malt that that I purchased at the event in Cgars in Great Yarmouth or it would pair perfectly with a vintage port. Maybe a full bodied red wine? At the end of the smoke, it stayed constant and did not get too hot as some cigars do. I started towards the end to get notes of cedar and could detect ripe berries. This is why I feel that it would go with a port or full bodied red. It had three distinct caps and would properly be easy to cut, although, and this might upset the purists,

If I were asked which cigar I?d recommend to a new enthusiast as their first? it?d be this one.
Such a great smoke for a petit corona 👌

A really enjoyable cigar. Burns evenly with a nice amount of smoke. Well constructed, not tight but with a pleasant draw. Lasts about 45 mins but that perhaps just me. I left one with the wrapper undone for a few weeks and found this made it far smoother but still a strong flavour.

I enjoyed a sample at the store, so purchased a bottle. Not the same experience at home. I taste a strong hit of alcohol rather than the beauty of the rum during my store visit.
I've found if you use a small nose glass like a whisky tasting glass it does taste better, use a tumbler and it has a very bitter taste and bitter.
My overall verdict is this is not worth ?80.00 at best ?30.00 I feel robbed.
I would recommend Eagle Rare or Dom Maderas PX 5+5 over this at half the cost

Smoke time: 80 minutes
Started off strong with rich chocolatey flavors and a luxurious appearance, offering smooth, aromatic, and dense smoke in the first third. However, as you progressed, the cigar required frequent relighting, and the flavors became less pleasant, with acrid and acidic notes in the second and final thirds. Although the initial experience was promising, the maintenance issues and decline in flavor left you unimpressed, leading to the conclusion that it?s not one you would revisit.
Score: 5.5/10
