I am a binge buyer. About 20 years ago I bought an unmentionable amount of cigars. (I just did a count on those and still have 475 left). I occasionally hit the coolidors and tranfer to humidors. I come across this Partagas and it looked like it was involved in a nuclear blast of some sort. Now I should have just tossed it but I leave it in the humi. Everytime I open it I see this severly wounded Partagas and it makes me a little sad. I was cleaning up the humidor a bit and I decided some action was required. I dont do pipes. I wont roll. So its toss it or smoke it. If you saw it you would laugh at the shear absurdity of it. The wrapper undone from head to foot. I fire it up and it smokes normal. Huge plumes of smoke apparently the binder was fine. I am not a fan of Dominican ingredients. But it was actually a nice smoke. Smoked the whole thing without any issue except it had to be one of the ugliest cigars that was ever successfully smoked. If you like mild I can safely approve of this one. Just dont plan to store it for twenty years the wrapper is just not that durable!

These are some reaply rich and smooth smokes. Solid medium bodied smoke with great smoke output

This is one of my all-time favorite cigars. Unfortunately they have been discontinued. They're still available in 5-packs but the boxes of 20 are gone. The JR Alternative Almirante is still available and is an excellent value.

Overall a decent cigar it's not too powerful but not to mild either. It's nice for a summer night and a glass of red wine

Rich and smooth with a more mild than medium body. Well constructed with little to no flaws. Good cigars.

I love the camaroon wrapped cigars and this is one of the best. A nice medium body with a slight sweetness . Great with a Makers and Ginger Ale!

My first J.R. purchase years ago at the old Statesville store. A wonderful lady was very helpful. She showed me how to cut a torpedo gave me a defective cigar and other freebies. I've never forgotten her kindness.

I try many different smokes but always come back to partagas. Most mild cigars have no character but these do.

A very good smoke, especially for the price. It's made by the Fuentes family with a Cameroon wrapper which I like a lot. They are handmade, so each one may not be like the last. Over all, a very good cigar. I give them to friends. Don't give a friend a bad cigar!

So this is the famous Partagas. I'm not impressed at all. Roll is loose, taste is dry, rough and grassy. A rather poor showing for a brand that has been in existence for almost two hundred years.

A very good smoke, especially for the price. I love the Cameroon wrapper! The consistency is OK, but the cigar is well worth a try.

Still a good cigar, but the consistency has declined. However, you can't beat the creamy, Cameroon flavor!

This cigar is translated as the Admiral, adding some unique flair to this already outstanding smoke. Available in packs of 5, it uses a unique blend of Dominican and Mexican long filler tobaccos making it medium bodied and zesty. Its Cameroon wrapper adds in a nice touch of black pepper.
