| Don Jaime Partagás,
began manufacturing cigars in 1827, but put his own name on his line of
cigars in 1845. Partagás cigars also won gold medals in at least
three international expositions between 1867 and 1884. There is no doubt
about the strong, intense flavour of this line and it is still produced
in the Partagás factory. The range is immense and it would be hard
for a smoker not to find a Partagas which fits his or her interest in size
or shape. Buyer beware: the 8-9-8 selections vary greatly in size and strength;
identification is made by whether the box is varnished or not. Partagas
Lusitania is a cigar of a double corona delivering full-bodied Havana flavor
to the smoker. Heavy loam-like flavors coarse across the palate from this
hardcore Cuban cigar. |
