A well made, well aged D #4 is a flavorful, soft but fullbodied, smoke. The aroma is toasty and rich, and the draw is easy. My experience is that consistency has been unreliable. Ive had boxes that were full of tight, poorly rolled, almost green, cigars, and others that were superb all around. Could the poor ones have been counterfeits? Its certainly possible, even from the reputable dealer I buy from...so buyer beware and dont buy them sight unseen. All that aside though, a good Partagas D #4 is a truly fine cigar. Hand pick them, age them, and enjoy.
