OK. So by now I am sure you read the reviews that Dawg and Jingles posted from Saturday night. We were all at OneOff in York, PA. It is the bar/lounge that is located in the Yorktown Hotel; the site of our wedding reception this summer. We figured we should break it in!!
I smoked a 2003 Partagas EL Piramide; a fabulous cigar. The torpedo was suberbly constructed with a perfect draw. The flavor onset was immediate was medium to full bodied with complex woody flavors. These flavors were further enhanced by the Six Grapes Vintage Port that I had along with the cigar.
The smoke was thick and complex; yet gentle on the palate (that's for you Dawg). The burn was even throughout, requiring no corrections. The final third of the cigar featured some warm and sweet notes that I was unable to properly identify. It never became warm until the ash hit my fingertips!!
Overall, a great smoke!
I look forward to hearing what others had to say about it!
