The Partagás Línea Maestra Rito is the longest vitola in the prestigious Línea Maestra collection—an elite, modern evolution of the Partagás brand, crafted with the same ambition and refinement as Cuba’s finest premium lines, such as Cohiba Behike and Montecristo Línea 1935.
At the heart of the Rito is its commanding length, paired with a distinctive 109-style tapered head, offering both visual elegance and an extended, flavourful journey. Like its siblings in the range, the Rito is entirely handmade using tobacco grown exclusively in San Luis, Pinar del Río—marking a first in Habanos S.A. history. This terroir-focused approach brings aromatic complexity and depth while staying true to the bold, full-bodied identity of Partagás.
The cigar opens with oak and warm bread dough, before unfolding into a rich, sweet-and-spicy fusion reminiscent of dark chocolate and dried chilli. While some batches have shown variability in draw and burn, the overall experience is rewarding and flavourful—making the Rito an excellent choice for those seeking a longer, contemplative Cuban smoke.
Presented in signature blue lacquered boxes of 20, and finished with a dual-band design featuring the vitola name, the Rito stands as a powerful, elegant tribute to Partagás’ legacy.
