Tasting notes

Partagás "Royales": 
Brand: Partagás
Market name: Royales
Factory name: Dichosos
Dimensions: 48 ring gauge x 150mm length
Presentation: 20-unit travel humidor with commemorative 180th anniversary ring and standing band.
Wrapper: brown, smooth, silky, fatty and shiny
Draw: excellent
Ash: compact
Strength: full
Smoking time: around 45-60 minutes

From the first draw, it displays a clean flavour that elegantly evolves into subtle notes of cocoa and oak. With excellent draw and compact ash, the smoke is dense and rewarding, with a well-accentuated aftertaste that can be enjoyed for approximately 45 to 60 minutes. Its presentation in a 20-Habanostravel humidor provides ideal preservation for enjoyment anytime, anywhere, allowing Royales to offer its best organoleptic characteristics.

Pairing suggestion: Partagás Royales is an invitation to pair it with robust, long-aged spirits. The ideal combination is those aged naturally in white oak barrels, whose refinement develops a profile with notes of dried fruit, chocolate or vanilla. When paired with this Habano, an authentic symphony of flavours is created for an exceptional sensory experience.
