Partagas 160

**pub spears** · 04-05-2007, 10:54 AM

I couldn't even consider trying a 160. I bought a 150 robusto back in 2001 or 2 and finally smoked it last year. Not bad at all, but worst buy ever considering the $30 tag. I was a stogie noob back then. Maybe thats hype for ya. I love Partagas Blacks, but I couldn't reccomend any of the $10+ sticks. Good to the point review.

Just to follow up. The cigar did have a nice flavor. But the point of my comment is what ever the cigar had was not worth the $20 price tag that it came with.

By the way pub spears I could recommend a few sticks in the $10+ range that are def worth the money. A few quick examples: OpusX, Anejo, DC Maximus, PAM just be sure that the places you buy them have prices close to MSRP

Wow. I don't remember what it was, but I know it was nowhere near 20 bucks (I tend to remember those.) I'm pretty lucky that the B&M here is pretty reasonable and they give a 20% discount on anything over a $275 total order. That's pretty easy to do.

Don't get me wrong, I don't doubt you...

Now you've got me curious. I will have to take a ride and find out what they are getting for them. They can usually come close to matching the best price on the internet with their prices and the 20% discount. Maybe I'm wrong... Apparently it's happened before.

Almost positive they are 16, 18, 20 respectively @ tampahumidor.

Me too and a few more. I meant $10+ NC Partagas. By the way, that was a 150 I paid $30 for when I was a noob. I think I remember Thompson's trying to get over $800 a box for them back then.
