Storage Instructions
Store your PARTAGAS LINEA MAESTRA ORIGEN (20) in a well maintained humidor for the best results. Aim for a relative humidity between 68% and 72% and a temperature of 65ºF to 70ºF (18ºC to 21ºC). Keep the humidor away from direct sunlight and heat sources to avoid fluctuations. If your humidor is new, season it fully before adding cigars so the cedar can stabilize the internal environment. For travel or short term transport use a quality travel humidor or a sealed plastic container with a small humidification pack that is rated for cigars. If your PARTAGAS LINEA MAESTRA ORIGEN (20) features a darker maduro style wrapper you may prefer the lower end of the humidity range to maintain firmness. If it has a lighter wrapper keep it toward the middle of the range to preserve elasticity and prevent cracking.
Care Tips
Handle the PARTAGAS LINEA MAESTRA ORIGEN (20) by the band or the body gently to avoid damaging the wrapper. Avoid rolling or pinching the cigar when inspecting it. Use a sharp guillotine or a precise V cutter for a clean cut that protects the draw. Allow newly purchased cigars to rest in your humidor for at least one to two weeks so tobaccos can equalize after shipping. For enthusiasts who appreciate additional complexity consider aging select sticks for six months to two years under stable conditions to let flavors mellow and integrate. Rotate cigars periodically if you store many boxes to ensure even humidity exposure. Keep strongly flavored or infused cigars stored separately to prevent flavor transfer. Finally light your PARTAGAS LINEA MAESTRA ORIGEN (20) evenly and sip slowly to enjoy the full range of flavors preserved by careful storage.

Tasting Notes
The Partagas Linea Maestra Origen (20) presents a refined, full-bodied profile that opens with an earthy, toasted cedar core and an immediate wave of black pepper and warm spice. Mid-palate notes reveal dark cocoa, rich espresso crema and a leathery savory depth, balanced by a subtle sweetness of dried fig and caramelized sugar. Aromas bloom of roasted nuts, tobacco honey and a faint citrus peel, adding brightness to the cigar’s weighty backbone. The finish is long and creamy, with lingering smoke, bitter chocolate and a whisper of mineral salt that keeps the experience complex and intriguing.
Pairing Suggestions
Aged dark rum, an añejo rum with molasses, toffee and baking-spice nuances complements the cigar’s cocoa and caramel threads while amplifying its warm spice. Espresso, preferably a double shot of a dark-roast blend, the coffee’s concentrated bitterness and rich crema mirror the cigar’s espresso and chocolate notes and sharpen the finish. 70–85% dark chocolate or a mature hard cheese like aged Manchego, the chocolate’s bitter-sweet density or the cheese’s nutty salinity harmonize with the cigar’s leathery, nutty elements and prolong the tasting journey.
