A Partagas Made In Miami
For the first time in the history of the Miami’s Little Havana neighborhood, retailers can expect the new Partagas de Bronce to start shipping tomorrow.
Available in only one size, the Gran Corona measuring 6 1/4 inches by 46 ring gauge, Partagas de Bronce is named in honor of the factory it is produced at (bronce is Spanish for “bronze”). Made of only Nicaraguan tobacco, these cigars are covered in a Corojo-seed wrapper, and blended by product development manager Justin Andrews of Scandinavian Tobacco Group (owner of the non-Cuban Partagas brand), and Sandy Cobas, owner of El Titan de Bronze. According to the company, this is a medium-bodied cigar.
Production will be limited to 5,000 boxes of 10 cigars. Each box is signed by the factory roller who made the cigars within. The cigars are set to retail for $22.99 each (before taxes), similar in retail price to the Cohiba Serie M, another cigar made at El Titan de Bronze for STG.
Partagas de Bronce is distributed by Diesel and more.
