The Stogie Review reviews a Brazilian puro called Dona Flor.
The double cap reaches down past the shoulder on the head making it all but impossible to make a bad cut. Similar to the Alonso Menendez the general feel of the cigar is softer than most robustos, with a few spots that are almost spongy. The draw on the Dona Flor was also very easy, causing it to produce thick volumes of smoke. It started with a musty, earthiness that reminded me of the flavor I could never place with the Alonso Menendez, but not quite as sweet. As taste is so subjective, I don’t really expect that to mean much to anybody else but that’s how it struck me.
The Stogie Guys have a write up on the legendary Partagas 150.
This cigar is one about which you could write almost endlessly or say nearly nothing at all, having been left speechless. It is a superb, sublime smoke that lives up to the stellar reputation earned since the 1995 release.
