Appearance:
The Lusitanias is a sight to behold. The wrapper on this Lusitanias looks beautiful. It is on the dark side with hardly a vein, oily, hard to the touch with a slight box press and a perfect cap.
Smoking Notes:
Before lighting up
The pre-light draw tells us it will draw well and give a light cedar flavor. Showcasing sweet notes with some cedar hints, and a pleasant deep spiciness.
Burn/ Draw
Even burn throughout and a mouth filling draw with billowing smoke.
Initial third:
The aromas that stand out in the first third are spices and leathery notes. After the first few draws, the cinnamon and ginger flavors are joined by coffee and cacao notes. The cigar is very well balanced in terms of flavors. All the spicy flavors are in full blown by the end of the first third.
Middle third:
The second third continues on the same path, with the addition of moist soil aromas that reveals the richness of the cigar. Many flavors start appearing, bitterness from coffee aromas, spice from cinnamon, sweetness from caramel. The burn is still perfect and the draw remains amazing as well.
Final third:
The final third is once again incredibly rich. The mixture of spices and bitterness is still incredibly there, with notes of Asian spices and bitter chocolate. Herbal touches also start appearing towards the end, and all that makes a cigar that is hard to put down. This gem delivers it until the nub.
In summary, many aficionados claim this is the best cigar in the world, right up there with the Hoyo De Monterrey double corona.
Smoking time:
120 - 180 Minutes

By Rodney - Mary and Ken really helped me out and took care of me when I emailed about my order. I had an incorrect delivery address, and Mary shipped me a new box of Lusitanias right away. They arrived within a week, and they look great. I can't wait to light em up!

Great, Big Cigar

There's nothing I love more than sitting down to a nice big smoke at the end of the day. And this is a go to cigar for me.
First of all, you simply can't beat the price on these. Big flavor, Big Cigar, not much $$.
Second, these cigars smoke great out of the box. I have smoked 2 already after having just received them in the past week. I know they will get better in time but they are superb now.
This was a favorite of mine in the 1990's and still is to this day. Partagas Lusitania....a Cuban thoroughbred.
Thank you Cigar Terminal! -

By Regiampiero - The Lusitania is one of the most iconic cigar that ever came out of Cuba, and for good reasons. Creamy and tangy through and through you will not be disappointed with this cigar.

Awesome after a few months rest
, 10/9/2017
By Mark - This is a follow up to my 8/12/17 review. The additional two months of rest in the humidor did wonders for these cigars. It is now smoking wonderfully--burn and draw issues no longer exist. These cigars will still benefit from more aging and am excited to monitor the taste progression, having a cigar every couple of months.
