Appearance:

The Partagas Chico is a small machine made in Cuba; each of them is individually wrapped in cellophane and is packaged with band. The wrapper is of brownish-red color with a smooth texture. The cigar has a rough appearance, with some veins, but the leaf itself is nice. There is no cap to it, so there is no need to cut it.

Smoking Notes:

Before lighting up:

Raw, unrefined tobacco flavor exude from the Partagas Chico with also some woody aromas. The pre-light draw is fine. The cigar smells as beefy as it looks.

Burn/Draw:

The cigar burns nicely in a clean sharp line, creating dark ashes and generating an acceptable amount of smoke.

Initial third:

Unsurprisingly, the cigar greets you with straight rough tobacco taste. The first third is mostly characterized by lots of wood and pepper, which it continues over the whole cigar.

Middle third:

In the middle third, the strong tobacco aromas fades away in the background, while remaining present all through the cigar, and leaves more space for a stronger peppery flavor. We can also detect some hints of coffee and of cream.

Final third:

In the final third, the coffee flavor continues on and some sweet cream aspect becomes now the dominant aroma of the Partagas Chico. This release of sweetness is welcomed to balance the overall strength of the cigar.

In summary, this is a nice quick yet intense smoke. This powerful taste is typical Partagas.

Smoking time:   10 - 20 minutes
