Partagas Cifuentes 2006?

I think it's right, you never know how YOU will react to a cigar, but DO BE warned, "Aged" Altadis cigars (IME) are
going to be pretty disappointing in the end. I go so far only because I am known for my preference for a mild-medium cigar,
heavily leaning towards medium. And to ME, these types of NC cigars just don't have good legs, in my not-so-recent
experience. I liked Partagas NCs in the olden days, especially tubed ones. And maybe these Cifuentes are blended more
complexly (word?) but I would say these are a major PASS. You might find them to be fine, but "aged", in those terms,
to me just means "unsold, and we don't really want to take a beating when we dump em".

Find me an old box of Partagas Humitubes and I am on it! Partagas (NC) is just a shadow of its former self 15+ years ago.
