new cigar that came out at this year&#8217;s show.\u00c2\u00a0 We would like to show you, the readers a different perspective from each of us.\u00c2\u00a0 I feel like this gives you a good idea of the new cigars that come out and hopefully give you a better idea of what to expect.\u00c2\u00a0 This year we are focusing mainly on cigars that General Cigar has brought forth.\u00c2\u00a0 So on top of the Partagas, we also have the Punch Diablo, La Gloria Cubana Esteli, and CAO Nicaragua.\u00c2\u00a0 So keep an eye out for those in the coming days.\u00c2\u00a0 Now onto my review of the Partagas Legend.<\/p>\n<p>The very first thing you notice with the cigar is the nice box press shape and firm feel.\u00c2\u00a0 It&#8217;s a darker wrapper color which gives a hue of dark and milk chocolate.\u00c2\u00a0 The band is a nice and clean white with black lettering, a simple design yet it really captures the eye.\u00c2\u00a0 The toro\u00c2\u00a0vitola is my go to so this cigar looks to be right in my whee<\/p>\n<p>Upon lighting it up I notice subtle flavors of caramel, leather, and molasses.\u00c2\u00a0 The burn\u00c2\u00a0tends to be a bit flaky and does not stay together for very long.\u00c2\u00a0 There is a slight run of the burn as well, but nothing overbearing.\u00c2\u00a0 After a few inches the caramel and leather are more pronounced and the flavors are really starting to take shape.\u00c2\u00a0 I have had 3 of these cigars now to base my review on and each time it has been pretty consistent with the time before.\u00c2\u00a0 The flavors and burn stay consistent\u00c2\u00a0as well.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.inthehumidor.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/43672990_2052261478128207_6279700163409739776_n.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\"

\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Final Note:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>As I write this I am sitting in the fabulous new Cigar International cigar shop in The Colony, Tx.\u00c2\u00a0 If you live in the Dallas area I suggest giving them a visit.\u00c2\u00a0 At the price point of this cigar I would recommend giving it a try.\u00c2\u00a0 If you are into a perfect burn and don&#8217;t enjoy heavy leather I would not recommend it.\u00c2\u00a0 Partagas has always been a hit or miss for me, their regular base line is just ok to me, but when they come out with innovative\u00c2\u00a0products in the boutique style they can hit the nail on the head.\u00c2\u00a0 One example of that is the Partagas Benji, still one of my favs.<\/p>\n<p>Rating: 4\/5 Stars<\/p>\n<p>Review by Nick
