Partagas Capitols Cigar – Single

The Partagas Capitols Cigar reflects the brand’s heritage, crafted within Habanos S.A.’s Línea Retro collection. Measuring 5⅛ inches (130mm) with a 42 ring gauge, this Petit Corona vitola uses 100% Cuban tobacco sourced from the Vuelta Abajo region in Pinar del Río. The blend incorporates filler and binder leaves selected for their earthy intensity, a hallmark of Partagas since its founding in Havana in 1845.

Construction and Flavor Profile

The Partagas Capitols features a reddish-brown wrapper with a firm texture. The draw is consistent, producing bold notes of earth and pepper that transition into roasted coffee, dark chocolate, and subtle sweetness. Combustion remains even, sustaining a medium-to-full-bodied strength throughout the smoking session.

Packaging Design

Each Partagas Capitols tin contains five cigars housed in a retro-styled metal case. This design pays homage to 1970s Cuban cigar packaging, combining portability with collector appeal. The airtight tin ensures freshness while serving as a functional keepsake.

Historical Context

The Partagas factory, established by Don Jaime Partagas in 1845, remains operational in Havana. Its cigars are distinguished by Vuelta Abajo tobaccos, which contribute to the Partagas Capitols’ deep, earthy flavor profile. This cigar exemplifies the brand’s commitment to regional leaf selection and traditional production methods.
