Popular Post JohnS Posted July 11, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted July 11, 2019 Partagás Lusitanias UEB Jun 2018 The Partagas Lusitanias is perhaps up there as one of my very favourite Partagas vitolas, it's just a pity I don't smoke them too often. The reason? Simply because they take a minimum of 2 hours to smoke! This 'Lusi' was picked up in a quarter pack offering from a 24:24 listing this year. I was both surprised and pleased how 'colorado red' the wrappers were on each of these, so I let them rest and today was the day to try one out. This cigar was interesting to say the least. It wasn't the flavours as they were quite satisfactory. Partagas sourdough, milk coffee, leather, a little paprika spice and caramel-like sweetness (what El Pres lists as nougat) was evident throughout, rather it was the ash. You see, a standard cigar will burn around the ligero leaves in the centre, that is if it's larger than around 38 ring gauge and it contains ligero leaves, and in doing so it will leave a slight cone shape as the ash drops signifying that the seco and volado leaves around the core burn quicker and hence drop off accordingly. Sometimes a well-constructed cigar will ash off in seemingly perfect inch-long cylindrical tufts, this cigar just ashed as it went. The ash was never longer than 1/3 to a 1/2 inch in length, and this only happened 2 or 3 times, usually the cigar flaked white ash, yet flavour-wise it was fine. What causes this phenomenon? There are two reasons mainly; one, the minerality in the soil of the leaves used was higher than normal or two, the ligero leaf in the centre was not rolled into the core correctly. If it was the second reason then you are likely to find some tunneling going on as you go, but this wasn't the case. No matter, I enjoyed this Lusitanias and I hope to smoke another when I get the opportunity. 25 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post RDB Posted July 12, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted July 12, 2019 This was interesting: my first SLR Regio, from a PSP six pack LAT DIC 18. Rich colorado colour and very nice appearance. The first third was amazing! Outrageously fruity: apricot jam, hints of red fruit and vanilla, really compelling flavours. Then quite abruptly I lost all that. The body built significantly, from light to medium, and a peppery taste started to obscure everything else. Some richness yes, but the flavours pretty much stopped being interesting and I put it down halfway. Now, this is clearly a baby, and it had just 30 days’ rest after travel. I am guessing these just need more time to shine. That first third was great. 16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
