Partagás

That's my favorite.

You know what, way back I used to get Partagas 150s.

Yeah.

That's a little, if I smoke those, like that's a great cigar, except I have to eat something really heavy.

Yeah? Oh, yeah.

Partagas Maduro.

Oh, yeah.

Bolivar.

In the Cuban world, there are maybe like five cigars I would call that as being complex.

Maybe.

You know what comes to my mind is the Partagas Colabra, the one

we did on the pod.

And this brings up a question I have for you.

So a gentleman, 60 year old Cuban born Spanish guy was traveling by bus toward Paris out of Spain, and authorities reportedly found 997 cigars carrying Habanos branding in his luggage, including names such as Cohiba, Montecristo, and Partagas.

The cigars were divided into 40 bundles and were transported loose in transparent plastic packaging, not in their original boxes.

Okay? Okay.

The hill one? The hill.

And then he says, oh, forgot to mention, smoking a Partagas and Inada Mastaro 6x52, really good.

Wow.

And that's

it for the mail.

Is that a Cuban one?

Or is that a New World Partagas?

All right.

And I knew that he was at the La Corona factory.

But then he moved from La Corona and moved to Partagas.

So I found him at the Partagas factory.

And his name was Rodolfo Taboada.

He's passed.

"I was at El Laguito for this many years.

I was at the Partagás factory for this many years." But they also have some, some pretty high-profile clients.

So they're making cigars for third parties.

Uh, I don't wanna give away too much of the story.

If it's Christmas...

Why not give them a cigar, a Cuban cigar with a red band on it? Give them a Partagas set.

Give them two Partagas P2s.

That's a good one.

I know this because I see this at TomTom all the time.

They have this leather Partagas case with two P2s in it.

And that's like a Christmas gift set.

That's a really nice thing.
