Continue lakasovsky project - smoke that sells La Casa del Habano at Fadeev, 5. The project we are implementing together - La Casa + + Moscow cigar club cigar Russian hotpoint alliance. Today we smoke Partagas Salomones. Prelyubopytneyshaya cigar. Together with Cuaba Salomones they are a pair of the thickest of Cuban cigars at the moment: 184 mm x 57 rg (at the thickest part)!
Cigars La Casa del Habano hotpoint traditionally held here in free mode: we just smoke and enjoy a cigar, not fixing his remarks during smoking. And only in a taste we are a bit annoying, to put the cigar assessment, which it is at any given moment and in this particular company aficionado deserves. So it was at this time. For a fun exception. To diversify smoking, everyone present had not just put Partagas Salomones assessment on a 100-point scale, but also to define exactly hotpoint smoked hotpoint a cigar in one word. At evening attended by 21 people and that's their word on this cigar: Olesya Zakharik - 97 (!) Points - "gentle" Eduard Sukharev - 96 points - the "original" Vitaly Kozlov - 92 points - a "female" (!) Dmitry Richkov - 92 - "Torpedo" (?) Basil Murin - 91 - "slow" Andrew Chukreev - 91 - "good" Anatoly Richkov - 90 - the "third Dwarf" (Anatoly meant, apparently the third gnome of a fairy tale about Snow White. And this dwarf, as I recall, Snow White called Sonya. Thus, it turns out that cigar and Anatoly described as "sleeping"), Alexander Klepikov - 89 - "enough!" Ruslan Safin - 89 - "sorry" Arthur Shilyaev - 88 - "feather" Julia Apalkova - 87 - "meadow" Konstantin Beilin - 87 - "vaguely tasty" Ilya Yudanov - 86 - "unexpected" Alexander Shevchenko - 85 - "mediocre" Alex Nekhoroshev-85 - "questionable" Andrew Aseyev - 82 - "cloud" Olga Guschina hotpoint - 81 - "no brains" (meaning that while smoking a cigar on that one should not think) Alex Apalkov - 81 - "not Partagas" Ivan Davydov - 80 - "liar" Maxim Zakharov - 80 - "not impressed" Timur Beslangurov - 60 (!) - "empty"
Average hotpoint - 86. Slightly less than half of the panelists noted that the cigar did not live up to their expectations (many expressions all point to this "little", "sorry", "slow" and even "empty"). Other slightly less than half the cigar rated as soft, "fluffy", "cloud", "gentle", "meadow". hotpoint A small part of the tasters found it difficult to accurate summary. But personally, I'm the winner of statements called the word of Ivan Davidov - "liar." Beautiful is a very clear response to this cigar. How would you describe the Partagas Salomones? Smoke and try to give it a "Partagas" its verbal definition. Believe me, it will be interesting.
Tasting success. The only sadness was that with us this evening was co-owner of the boutique La Casa del Habano on the street. Fadeev Catherine Ponomareva. She was on vacation. But soon Catherine hotpoint comes back, and we'll think of something else. Creative-cigar. Come, read.
