Review #90: Jul 06 POS, need I say more. Wonderful, my favorite cigar in the world and they havent fully matured. - Submitted by jpdunn on November 29, 2007
Review #89:  I agree completely with the previous review. Smoked my first from a box date 7-06. The burn was even but the taste was nowhere near the decadence of an Upmann 2 or Monte 2, both from 2006 as well. The PSP2 was smooth, but seemed one dimensional. The last third was the most flavorful, whereas I am used to the middle third being the sweet spot. It seemed loosely filled, making it difficult to draw in a good amount of smoke. I will let these sit another 6 months before trying another. - Submitted by gregglantos on November 29, 2007
Review #88: This Piramide was rather young (POS FEB 06) with well aged tobacco and consistent burn with full but not very rich blend for my palette. All cigars I smoked were a bit loose rolled what required environment with higher humidity (near 70% RH). Because of lighter rolling there was always present risk of overheating therefore proper draw was essential. This is typical representative of new line of Cuban cigars which tends to be somewhat on the milder side, with easy draw and balanced flavors. As in Serie D No.4, there is missing certain additional component in the blend what can put this cigar on my top selection. Probably will never become one of my favorites but will always have place in my humidor. - Submitted by Diademo on November 11, 2007
Review #87: This is hands down my favorite Havana Piramide. I feel ashamed to have worked through a 2005 box, knowing how amazing these will be in another few years. All the great full flavors of woodsy spice you find in Partagas, with a light herbalness to the finish. Perfect construction, thick and rich body, medium-full strength smoke. I am generally critical of smokes, but my only complaint with these is that they do not age fast enough. - Submitted by fabio on October 28, 2007
Review #86: The first thing that catches your eye in this cigar, besided the wonderful construction, is the wrapper colour: it's a light colorado, while usually piramides from other brands (and the LE from Partagas too)wear darker maduro wrappers. You won't believe how many people is still persuaded that darker colour means stronger smoke! Give them one of these if you want to make them see the light.
Back to the stick, it has one of the strongest spicy flavours when unlit, I've seldom stepped into such a good perfumed cigar; pepper flavour is particularly strong, foretelling what will come later.
Give it fire, and this atomic power plant begins to work his way through your consciousness.
The nicotine punch is strong since the very first puff, the flavour is intense as well, with strong cedarwood notes prevailing upon spices and vegetal ones.
The evolution is continuous, without notable leaps, but pitiless in its strenght climbing. In the second part the pepper you were smelling before lighting up explodes in all its piquancy, I actually felt some bite on my tongue! Nothing disturbing, but it's a notably rare sensation when smoking a cigar (if you're also a pipe smoker you'll know what I mean). This stick is incredibly intense.
Towards the end of the second third, you'll feel the flavour become smoother and rounder: that's the beginning of the imperious final. "Darker" spices, vegetal notes, pure power in a sort of musical crescendo to the last inch that will leave you intoxicated and asking for more. The nicotine punch now is almost overwhelming. It's not a smoke, it's a siege: don't try to dominate this cigar, allow it to take command and tell you its story, you'll be thankful. The aftertaste is pleasant and long lasting, despite anything you'll drink or eat for hours to come.
Provided this production is only two years old, I can imagine that a proper aging will refine it and make it more austere, levelling some spicy sharpness.
Last word on the smoking dynamics: draw and burning were perfect. Again, considering the age, this is noteworthy.
Buy this cigar, you'll be rewarded by 1 1/2 hours in dreamland.
