Partagas Maduro No. 3 Cigar – Single

The Partagas Maduro No. 3 Cigar exemplifies the brand’s signature earthy intensity, using filler and binder tobaccos exclusively sourced from Cuba’s Vuelta Abajo agricultural zone. This 5.75-inch Robusto Extra format features a 50-ring gauge and showcases a dark, oil-rich Maduro wrapper leaf cultivated through extended aging and natural fermentation processes. The wrapper’s sweetness complements the cigar’s structured blend, developed since the 2015 introduction of the Maduro line.

Construction & Combustion

Handmade in Cuba, the Partagas Maduro No. 3 combines aged Maduro wrapper with long-filler tobaccos for optimal combustion stability. The draw consistency and slow burn rate allow progressive flavor development across the smoking experience. Initial notes of dark chocolate and espresso transition through roasted nut and molasses undertones, concluding with leather and dried fruit accents in the final third.

Flavor Profile & Strength

Dominant earthy characteristics anchor the Partagas Maduro No. 3’s full-bodied profile, amplified by pepper spice and cedar wood nuances. The Maduro wrapper contributes a caramelized sweetness that balances the blend’s robust foundation. Anise and mineral elements emerge as secondary layers, characteristic of Vuelta Abajo-grown tobaccos.

Designed for experienced smokers, this cigar’s intensity stems from its triple-ligero filler composition and extended fermentation period exceeding standard Partagas production protocols. The Maduro No. 3 maintains the brand’s legacy while showcasing specialized wrapper cultivation techniques.
