Description
The Partagas Rito is part of the prestigious Linea Maestra series, launched in 2023 to highlight the artistry of Cuba’s master cigar rollers. The vitola, Gustosos, is a double robusto format that emphasizes balance and complexity. Each cigar is hand‑rolled using tobaccos from the Vuelta Abajo region, ensuring consistency and depth of flavor.
Presented in 20‑count cedar boxes, the Rito features a distinctive blue and gold secondary band marking its place in the Linea Maestra collection. This edition was designed for aficionados who appreciate longer, more immersive smoking sessions, combining Partagas’ bold character with refined craftsmanship.
Taste Note
The Rito begins with a bold introduction of earthy tobacco and cedar, accented by a gentle spice that sets the tone for the smoke. As it progresses, the flavors deepen into a rich combination of leather, cocoa, and roasted coffee, balanced by a subtle sweetness that softens the intensity. Midway through, the cigar reveals more complexity, with layers of wood and nutty undertones adding warmth and depth. In the final third, the strength builds, showcasing peppery notes and darker chocolate accents that leave a lingering, robust finish. This progression makes the Rito a complex yet harmonious cigar, ideal for experienced smokers who enjoy strength paired with refinement.
