Partagas Linea Maestra Rito Cigar – Single

The Partagás Línea Maestra Rito measures 168mm in length with a 52 ring gauge. It uses tobacco exclusively sourced from Cuba's San Luis region in Pinar del Río, marking the first time in Habanos' history that a complete range utilizes leaf from a single growing area. This Cuban cigar features a "Cabeza Tumbada" head style, previously seen in limited editions like the 2015 Ramón Allones Hunters & Frankau Anniversario 225.

Flavor Profile and Construction

This full-bodied cigar maintains Partagás' characteristic intensity while introducing new aromatic complexity through San Luis tobacco. The blend delivers notes of leather and cocoa with subtle pepper accents. Each cigar features dual bands - a primary blue band with the vitola name and a secondary foot band for enhanced presentation.

Linea Maestra Range Details

The Línea Maestra collection includes three exclusive vitolas:

• Origen
• Rito
• Maestro

All cigars come in lacquered blue boxes containing 20 units. This release follows Partagás' 2018 Línea Maduro expansion, continuing the brand's tradition of full-bodied profiles while introducing new regional tobacco sourcing methods.

Historical Context

The Línea Maestra follows other landmark Habanos releases including Cohiba Behike (2010), Montecristo Línea 1935 (2017), and Romeo y Julieta Línea de Oro (2020). Its "109" head style references historical Partagás 109 cigars from commemorative humidors.
