About this Cigar: The potential of the these piramides is quite exciting to say the least. The No.2 is medium in strength and looks great. Tobacco from the finest abajo region ensures prime smoking. The journey of the cigar is clever and intriguing, spicy and leathery, then it creeps a sweet woodiness and slightly acidic cocoa. Throughout these variations an underlying moist earth aroma is a constant and serves to smooth the sensory ride. The construction and burn on the No.2 is very impressive and deserves respect for the torcedor. These cigars need time to mature but they are becoming a classic habano.

About this cigar: The factory was opened in 1845 by Don Jaime Partagas and it has been making the cigars that bear his name ever since.
A Partagas is immediately recognisable by its deep, earthly flavour. The character of its blend springs from a selection of filler and binder tobaccos grown in the Vuelta Abajo zone and chosen for their unmistakable richness of flavour and aroma.

These mareva sized cigars – 5 1/8″ (129mm) x 42 ring gauge – are presented in tins of five and are the second of two products to be released by Habanos S.A under the ‘Linea Retro’ title, following on from the Romeo y Julieta Club Kings earlier in the year.
The retro metal tin, inspired by pocket cigar cases that were much in vogue in the 1970s, makes these new additions eminently portable and quite stylish. The original 1970’s cases are now much sought after by collectors around the world, fetching high prices at auction.
These cigars have been rolled to the distinct full-flavoured blend that has made Partagas such a favourite over the years and have been made “totalmente a mano con tripa larga”- totally handmade with long filler. All of the filler, binder and wrapper leaves used in making these cigars are harvested from the best tobacco-growing plantation in the Vuelta Abajo area in Pinar del Río, Cuba.
The Partagas Cedros is the sixth presentation dedicated to celebrating the Chinese New Year. By selecting the Partagas brand, Habanos s.a. has now utilised all the Global Brands to mark these occasions.
The Partagás Cedros represents the Year of the Snake and is presented in stylish lacquered boxes with a snake-skin effect etched on the lid.
The Cedros is an entirely new vitola (size) within the Habanos standard portfolio, measuring 5⅜” (135mm) x 50 ring gauge. The size is referred to as Dignos (‘worthy’ in English) in the cigar factories of Cuba, and each cigar is dressed with an additional foot band that denotes an image of a snake in keeping with the Chinese zodiac.
18,888 boxes have been produced, with each box containing 18 of these exceptionally rare cigars
