Hi all,

A favorite vendor has dress boxes of 1997 Partagas Lusitanias,
( BM OASC) and I was looking for input from some botl's who had any experience with this vintage. I'm looking for a full bodied, big smoke.

Thanks,

Scott

Partagas lusi -97 is not a full bodied smoke.. medium to upper medium would be my assessment of it.. it used to be a full bodied smoke pre -95 blend change.. and it is coming back to the former glory with current releases... but 96-2002 would be a weaker blend...

Still very yummy for sure.. and I really like it.. but it isn't a full bodied bold smoke that you stated you are looking for.... more of an aristocratic and refined lady :wink:

My 2002 Lusis are pretty mild, very aromatic, but too mild for my liking. I've some from 98, 99 and 2000 and they are basically the same. None are like the Lusis I was fond of in the early 90's, they were a powerhouse cigar back then.

If you want a churchill size cigar with a kick I would recommend you look at Punch Monarcas, or Cohiba Esplendidos.

1997 Lusi - a DELICIOUS, refined/sophisticated gem of a medium bodied smoke.

Certainly not a 'kick in the head' , "knock me down" type of smoke - but a wonderful smoking experience nevertheless. I have this with some beautiful Cognac and am reminded again how good life can really be.... :smt023 :smt023

The '98s are wonderful and though I've never had the pleasure of a '97 I imagine they are fine smokes as well :smt025
