khomeinist Posted February 24, 2013 Share Posted February 24, 2013 BRC Do not like PSD4, regardless of factory.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mk05 Posted February 24, 2013 Share Posted February 24, 2013 You're nuts if you didn't like the past summer's Partagas D4's (April-July box code). Edited: read some previous posts and subconsciously wrote factory instead of date. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BonVivant Posted February 24, 2013 Share Posted February 24, 2013 Wow, PSD4s were rolled at Partagas factory in 2012? Fantastic! Can you provide the code, please? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
khomeinist Posted February 24, 2013 Share Posted February 24, 2013 Ok. I'm nuts. Lol. Never found the robusto vitola a particularly efficient delivery vehicle for the complex spiciness that characterizes Partagas at its best. SDC and Seleccion Privada for Partagas. Lonsdales, coronas, and even shorts in a pinch. The 'Serie' cigars just don't measure up.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ptowncigar Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 I'm a fan of both, however I would give a edge to BRC. Plus it seems like the 2012 are smoking really well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David67 Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 I must go with the Bolivar Royal Coronas. Last box I got, from Rob, of these was amazing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wil Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 Not my favourite vitola, but do love PSD4 when on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troels Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 Beside being recommended here, the BRC is cheapest - would be a consideration to me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
olotti Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 These are two flavor profiles I find are my favorites. The earthy, richness, coffee and white pepper of the Boli is bar none then I love the sweet spice and rich tobacco of the Partagas line.The BRC has been consistently better but if you can get a box of each from FOH than youll be treated right in spades and find the specialties both marcas have to offer.

shrink Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 Either can be good to great, depending on the box. Ask the FOH folks to choose the best box of either one, and you'll be happy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptainQuintero Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 Huh whichever you enjoy the most??!! No one here is smoking them for you! Buy what you enjoy not what others say you should enjoy! If you haven't had either before, grab a robusto splits sampler or the HQ best of march deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SMQQKIN Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 Can't go wrong with either ,but BRC are more consistent X2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

finecigar Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 BRCs have been much better smoke for me over the years. Don't get me wrong, PSD4s are wonderful smokes to but the BRC is a much better choice. I've had some quality issues (both smoke and construction) with the Partagas, not as much with bolivar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moogypug Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 Both are great. To me, they're so different that I can't really say one is really better than the other. With the stock I have, the BRC's are smoking well younger than the psd4 but YMMV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BBS Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 Both are staples, I have a couple boxes of each in the cabinet. As has been said, it's sort of an apples and oranges comparison. Flip a coin.....then buy a box of each..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smpf67 Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 PSD4 all the way!! They have been great from 2012-2014. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
purpleloki Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 I'd grab a box of each. Both of those robustos are goto sticks for me that are always in my humidor's main rotation. This Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FLB03TT Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 PSD4 for me I find I'm happy to smoke them anytime but need to be in the mood for a BRC Exact opposite reaction for me. The BRC is the far more everyday stick in my humi. The PSD4 and most Partagas, for that matter, have a very unique and distinctive flavor profile. When i'm in the mood for a Partagas, only a Partagas will satisfy. The BRC, while sharing the Bolivar brand profile with other Boli. vitolas, has a fundamental taste more similar than different to several other popular Robustos. Think RASS or HdM Epi.#2. Bottom line is I like them both, but probably smoke a BRC or one of it's peers 15-1 over a PSD4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FLB03TT Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 Sorry, fat fingered the above. polarbear's quote is the 1st two lines. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
