Medium flavour. A perfect afternoon smoke. Strong and quick with a kick at the end.
From the original Partagas to Partagas Black to Partagas Legend, every cigar is meticulously crafted with the finest tobaccos and the highest of standards, because the Partagas name is synonymous with premium cigars.
All Partagas vitolas are rich, full with earthy flavors. Despite the fact that the Chico is not hand rolled in the Royal Factory of Cigars Partagas but machine rolled in the ICT factory instead (as all cigarillos are), it nevertheless keeps the Partagas flavor profile.
The draw itself is perfect, it has just the right amount of resistance. Once the foot is lit, the cigar releases a very thick and white creamy smoke. Beautiful burn right away.
This is the 2012 regular production of the extremely popular 2008 Limited Edition. Keeping to the flavours and body of it predecessor, this vitola is truly one of the best in recent years from Partagas.
This Cuban cigar oozes with class and holds court with perfection. It has become one of my little treats in life’s ball of hard knocks, when I have had a grizzly day and I need some reward for my merits I light one of these up and meditate upon the truths of the smoke.
