Cifuentes Partagas 1876


Just finished my first Cifuentes Partagas. It was an OK smoke, but doesn't justify its labels enormous ego. However it is a reasonably priced cigar. Still not the best one I have tried so far.

From their web site:
These cigars bare the name of the Cifuentes family, the legendary makers of Partagas in Cuba. In a tradition that spans a century, the masters of Partagas would create cigars under their name with a unique and distinct character from all others readily available. That tradition continues with Partagas Cifuentes Blend.
Its deeply satisfying, full, rich taste is derived from a limited crop of sun-ripened Honduran wrapper leaves. The extra aging on the plant gives the wrapper leaf flavor characteristics like no other. And naturally, the quality and craftsmanship found in these cigars is everything you’d expect from a Partagas. This is a cigar that Ramon Cifuentes himself would have been proud to offer.
