Partagàs Cigars are known by millions around the world for creating full-flavoured cigars, which delivers complex flavours in unfathomable strengths.

Created by Don Jaime in 1845, the brand is named after the founder, much like H. Upmann Cigars and Vegas Robaina Cigars. Aged 14, Jaime arrived in Cuba as a young, ambitious tobacco dreamer. His factory in Havana included the word ‘royal’ in the name which some suggest was used to emphasise his cigars to the aristocracy.

Buying as many plantations as he could in Cuba’s great Vuelta Abajo region, Jaime is the first factory owner to use lectors to read aloud to workers. He is also one of the first to experiment with cigar fermentation and ageing methods to preserve the quality of his Cuban cigars. It was in the mid to late 1860s, when Don Jaime Partagas was murdered on one of his own plantations. Partagas Cigars were eventually in the hands of Ramon Cifuentes Llano, who pioneered the brand to be one of the best-selling cigars for sale online. The innovative advancements he made lead the brand to become as successful as it is today.

The brand has been acquired by a number of forward-thinking people and companies since it was founded – building upon the success and quality created by previous owners. The Partagas Serie D No. 4 Cigar is considered a favourite amongst every cigar aficionado. While the Partagas Lusitanias Cigar is a marvellously popular double corona. They’re firmly established as one of the most popular brands on our Cuban cigar shop.
