Partagas Maduro No. 3

The Partagas Maduro No. 3 cigar embodies the dark, richly aromatic side of this legendary brand. Measuring 145 mm in length with a ring gauge of 50 (factory vitola: Maduro No. 3), it delivers a dense, creamy smoke and the characteristic Partagas depth from the very first puff. For the Línea Maduro, selected leaves are fermented for longer – which explains the dark wrapper colour and the subtle natural sweetness in the flavour profile. Hand-rolled as a ‘Totalmente a Mano – Tripa Larga’ and packed in the traditional ‘Semi Boîte Nature’ box of 25, the Partagas Maduro No. 3 is both a premium treat for everyday enjoyment and an eye-catcher in the humidor.

Maduro with character – powerful & refined

The Partagas Maduro No. 3 cigar combines spice, depth and balance: an earthy base, cedar and cocoa, complemented by hints of brown sugar. The smoke remains creamy and clean; depending on the individual cigar, the strength ranges from medium to full-bodied – always refined, never harsh. Those who love the opulent Partagas signature will find here a modern format with clean lines.

145 × 50 – a smoking experience with plenty in reserve

Measuring 5¾″ × 50, the Maduro No. 3 offers a practical smoking time of around 45–65 minutes – enough time for the flavours to develop in layers. This format delivers a rich smoke volume with a cool draw and is ideal with an espresso, dark chocolate or a mature rum in the evening.

Línea Maduro – part of the core range since 2018

The Partagas Maduro No. 3 cigar has been part of the Línea Maduro range since 2018 (alongside No. 1 & No. 2). The series is characterised by darker, richer leaves and a flavour profile with depth and a gentle sweetness. A modern statement within the tradition-steeped world of Partagas – and a sure recommendation for aficionados seeking intensity combined with elegance.
