Decided that tonight was the perfect night to burn the Partagas Serie D No 4 that AVB, gifted me at the York, PA HERF. This was my first experience with an ISOM. I was rather nervous and very excited at the same time, to ignite this long awaited stick. I have been looking forward to trying one of these forbidden treasures from Cuba.
For those of you who don't know here are some facts about the stick.
Name: Partagas Serie D No.4
Vitola: Robusto
Ring Gauge:50
Length: 4.8 inches
Full Bodied
Pre-light aroma was absolutely barnyard, which was very appealing to me. I just couldn't stop taking sniffs along its incredible body. The stick was very well rolled, and had minimal veins visable.
Toasting the foot was another treat, with copious amounts of smoke rolling upward, hitting my nostrils and providing an absolutely delightful smell.
After taking a few draws, I was instantly hit with tastes of chocolate, cocoa and spice, all at once for the most part. Some other tastes also hit my palate but it was hard to discern everything because of the bombardment of delicious tastes. Stayed this way for the whole time for the most part, and never provided a dull moment. The stick burned absolutely razor sharp, and required no touch ups. It lasted for approximately 45 minutes and provided a wonderful journey into the world of ISOM's. This is one of the best sticks I have ever had the pleasure of placing to my lips.
Thanks again AVB, I appreciated it beyond words. :thumbs:
