  • Partagas 8-9-8 Varnished

    Presentation:
    Well, buying 10 898's nets you a pretty varnished box, free!

    Size:
    Corona-extra? As a dedicated robusto smoker, its thinner than a robusto.
    A good size format for the smoke.

    Construction:
    The cigar has a dark, slightly mottled wrapper. Draw is thick; like a smoothie not a milkshake, and gives a rich, heavy smoke.
    The burn is average, needs a few touchups to correct side-burning, but has a beautiful white tissue-papery ash; probably because of a thick wrapper leaf.

    Flavour:
    Very rich, strong, Partagas flavour; woody, sweet, leathery/earthy/cocoa notes.
    Similar to the short D5 LE, but more cabernet-sauvignon/port than espresso. How to compare it to the D4 or lusitania, different but still partagas. Guess I need to do some more research

    Overall:
    Good cigar, always enjoyable to smoke but definitely not an everyday smoke. Worth keeping a box, especially if you like the partagas style.

    Sounds like one to keep an eye out for. How old were they?

              i have struggled with the draw on the 898. I thought it was a dodgy box but i'll persevere. I love anything partagas.
