About Partagas Lusitanias

Michael Jordan isn’t the only one who considers this cigar to be their favourite. Smokers from all corners of the world have said the Partagas Lusitanias is one of the best smokes they’ve ever tried, and for good reason. 

We have Don Jaime Partagas to thank for this phenomenal cigar. Having established his brand in 1848, the Partagas Lusitanias has been around long enough to be considered one of Cuba’s most classic cigars. 

With a ring gauge of 49 and length of 7 ⅝, the Partagas Lusitanias is one of the lengthiest Cuban cigars on offer. Known for its full body flavour of earth and pepper, it’s best enjoyed slowly to let the whole experience unfold across your palette. 

Want To Try The Partagas Lusitanias For Yourself? 

The Partagas Lusitanias are very hard to find in Canada. When Cigar Chief does get new inventory of it in, it sells out very quickly. If you want to get first chance at buying this cigar, make sure to join the waitlist for this product. We’ll notify you as soon as it is back in stock.
