Partagas 898 NOV17 (TGCRW)

[JoeyBones777]

If I was the Don I would have plenty of Lonsdale/ dalias and churchills on hand. Among my favorite dalias is Partagas 898. There is something about it that pleases me beyond what it seems to actually offer. It is predominantly savory with just a touch of sweetness to round out the profile. It brings cinnamon, light cedar, white pepper, a touch of date sweetness and dark chocolate with a leathery scotch like finish. That finish made me grab a couple fingers of The Glenlivet 12 yr making it even more Godfathery!...and it worked incredibly well together. I give the 898 a 94 with some upside, though they don't need much more time. I hope to see these in production again soon because I want get more without paying secondary market prices.

Yes, the glass is designed for a cigar. Smaller rg sticks. The big boys won't fit...that's what she said. It was a gift from my wife.
