2006 Partagas 8-9-8s

[Altercall]

OK, so I've been hearing amazing things about the 06 898s. I've never had an 898 myself, but it sounds like a cigar I would enjoy. Plus, I love the reg production Partagas line. What have ya'll heard?

I know a couple of you have said they're pretty good, but I have heard some say they have the potential to be one of the best with age. I'm sure that's pushing it a bit, but none-the-less I'd like to try em.

I've heard that they are really good as well.

While I have yet to smoke a Partaga that I don't like. The 898V & the SdC line are my favorites.

Post #246 is a blind review I did and is in third place for the contest. Might been higher had not been so fresh.

The varnish is one awesome cigar. Definitely has legendary potential. Have not tried the standard.

Two different cigars, the Varnished is a Dalias and the unvarnished is a Coronas Grandes. The 898V typical partagas pepper and will age very nicely.
The UV is not as complex nor IMO will it age as well.

I think you had a 5'er somewhere, yea that's it okemyeye

The varnished a great cigars with 2-3 years on them. They can be bitter and very "in your face" at a young age.

Heck, I'd be interested in a split if someone wants to get one together.
