I would say they're not true to the Partagas character, not a stick I'd go for personally, have noticed everybody seems to be trying to flog these tins haha shame there's not a better stick inside!

[EdBlackadder]

Shame looked like quite a nice deal. Guess that's why they're on clearance.

Are these similar to the Partagas Mille Fleurs?

[big bopper]

They're better than the Mille Fleurs but for me not as good as a Party Short.

Superb smokes imo, grab a tin pal...

I've only had the short once, but not at all what I was expecting - not very strong or full flavoured. Need to give it another try.

Will do, though the D4 was also disappointing - much preferred Boli RC and RASS.

[JoeyGunz]

D4's went through a rough patch although I think the batch within the last year or so have been back on point!

Just had an unexpected bill so looks like I won't be picking anything up for a bit! Thanks for the reviews, though. Shame there aren't more 10 packs available as its a lot less of a buy in and more amenable to trying new sticks.

With you on that, I've got to have the side of my house repointed, three storeys, big fucking OUCH!

I smoked one on Christmas day as part of a Partagas sampler I had - I loved it, one of my favourites from the Festive Season!
