DESCRIPTION
The Partagás Cedros Year of the Snake combines Cuban tradition with an exclusive homage to the Chinese New Year - powerful, elegant and precisely crafted. As a strictly limited special edition, it symbolises Partagás' 180-year heritage and delivers a dense, characterful smoke with a long-lasting presence. Thanks to its flawless construction, reliable draw and expressive flavour, the Partagás Cedros Year of the Snake is both a collector's item and a connoisseur's cigar.
Partagás Cedros Year of the Snake - Origin & Edition
The special edition is totally handmade, longfiller in Cuba. Selected tobaccos from the Vuelta Abajo (Pinar del Río) - the island's most famous tobacco region - are used. The edition celebrates the year of the snake (wood element) and at the same time honours the importance of wood for the maturation and transport of fine Habanos. Each box contains 18 cigars and is equipped with NFC technology for authentication - a modern detail in the midst of classic craftsmanship.
Vitola, format & presentation
The vitola bears the factory name Dignos and measures 135 mm × ring gauge 50 (Grand Robusto). The edition is presented in high-gloss, red and gold lacquer boxeswith a snakeskin texture. In addition to the classic Partagás belly band, each cigar bears a zodiac-inspired foot band with a snake motif - a discreet, stylish distinguishing feature. 18,888 boxes were produced worldwide - a highlight for aficionados and collectors.
Flavours & moment of pleasure
The Partagás Cedros Year of the Snake has a strong, yet balanced profile when smoked: a clear note of dark Cuban tobacco opens, followed by cocoa and oak, supported by a dense smoke texture and a long, clean finish. Depending on the draw speed, the enjoyment time is around 45-50 minutes. Espresso, a barrel-matured rum or a round single malt with a fine vanilla and nutty sweetness are recommended as an accompaniment - this brings out the woody and chocolaty facets of the Cedros particularly well.

Enttäuschend
Ich geniesse sonst gerne die Standardformate von Partagas und ich schätze deren individuelles Aromenprofil. Bei dieser Vitola habe ich mich wegen der besonderen Positionierung des Produktes auf ein gehobenes Erlebnis gefreut. Leider begegnete mir ein Exemplar mit deutlich weniger Charakter als Partagas mir sonst bietet. Milder hatte man mit angekündigt, aber das sollte nicht automatisch flacher bedeuten. Durch die gesamte Brenndauer entwickelte sich aus den schwachen Aromen, deren Elemente schwer auseinanderzuhalten waren, mit einer nicht angenehmen fast „benzinigen“ Note zu Begin keine Steigerung mehr. Vielleicht, ohne zu zynisch werden zu wollen, das richtige für den chinesischen Markt, wo eher gehandelt und spekuliert als geraucht wird. Ich freue mich auf die nöchste no 4.
