Partagas Serie P No.2

The Partagás Serie P No. 2 is a celebrated Cuban torpedo, renowned for its bold character, rich complexity and iconic red-and-gold band. Measuring 6⅛" × 52, this Pirámide is hand-rolled in Cuba from long-filler Vuelta Abajo tobaccos, delivering a full-bodied, robust experience with flawless construction. Its distinctive tapered shape and deep, chocolatey-brown wrapper make it a visual standout, while the blend offers a generous 60–80 minute smoke — perfect for aficionados seeking a classic, powerful Havana. An instant success when Habanos S.A. introduced it in 2005, the “P” stands for Pirámide, its factory name. Cigar Aficionado praised it as beautifully balanced and complex, with nutmeg, maple syrup, fresh coconut and cured tobacco.

About Partagás

The Partagás brand was established in 1845 by Don Jaime Partagás y Ravelo, a Spanish immigrant who became a true pioneer of the Cuban cigar industry. He was among the first to experiment seriously with fermentation and ageing, and he introduced the tradition of the lector — a reader who entertains and educates the rollers — a practice that continues in Havana factories to this day. Don Jaime acquired prime Vuelta Abajo plantations to secure the world’s finest tobacco, setting Partagás apart from the outset. His story ended in tragedy — he was murdered on one of his plantations in 1868 — and the brand passed through several hands, including the Cifuentes family, who expanded its reach into the global icon it is today.

Tasting Notes of the Partagás Serie P No. 2

A bold, full-bodied, velvety Pirámide.

- Initial Third: Opens with bold pepper, earth and leather, underscored by cedar and a gentle floral aroma; subtle cocoa, nougat and sweet spice add intrigue, the smoke thick, velvety and immediately full-bodied.

- Middle Third: Pepper mellows as toasted nuts, oak and creamy coffee emerge; cedar and spice remain prominent, with vanilla, caramel and dried fruit, and a touch of citrus and honey balancing the earthy core.

- Final Third: Intensifies with wood, black tea, walnut and mocha; leather, earth and a resurgence of pepper linger on a long finish, with occasional maple syrup, coconut and nutmeg adding complexity.

- Aroma: A bouquet of cedar, earth, leather and sweet spice, with cocoa and floral notes; dense, creamy smoke.

- Mouthfeel: Smooth and chewy with a velvet-like texture and an even burn — hallmarks of excellent Cuban construction.

Fun Facts About the Partagás Serie P No. 2

The “P” stands for Pirámide — its Cuban factory name — and the Serie P No. 2 was an instant success when Habanos S.A. launched it in 2005, quickly becoming one of the most sought-after modern Cuban torpedoes.

At 6⅛" × 52 with a 60–80 minute smoke, it’s a substantial, unhurried cigar — the tapered Pirámide head concentrates the draw and focuses the blend’s bold, full-bodied flavours.

It shares the same prestigious red-and-gold Partagás band as the legendary Serie D No. 4 — the two are the pillars of the modern Partagás range, one a Robusto, one a torpedo.
