Storage Instructions
For best results store your PARTAGAS SERIE E NO. 2 (5) in a quality humidor set to a steady relative humidity of 68% to 72% RH and a temperature between 65ºF and 70ºF (18ºC to 21ºC). A humidor lined with Spanish cedar will help preserve the oils and flavors of the rich Cuban tobacco and will promote even aging. Keep the cigars organized with a little space between them so air can circulate. Use a calibrated hygrometer and a reliable humidification system to avoid wide swings in humidity. If you do not have a humidor, use an airtight container with a two way humidity pack until a permanent solution is available. Avoid direct sunlight heat and sudden temperature changes that can dry or over-humidify the wrapper and filler.
Care Tips
Handle PARTAGAS SERIE E NO. 2 (5) gently and by the body to protect the wrapper leaf. Use a sharp straight cutter or a punch for a clean cap removal and avoid tearing the wrapper. If the cigar arrives slightly dry allow it to re-acclimate slowly by bringing it into a properly maintained humidor and monitoring humidity over several days. These robusto format cigars can be enjoyed shortly after purchase but will often smooth and gain complexity after a few months of controlled aging. For long term aging store them flat or side by side and check periodically for mold or beetle activity. When transporting use a travel humidor rather than leaving cigars in a pocket or car. Light with a butane torch or cedar spill and toast the foot evenly before puffing to preserve draw and flavor. With attentive storage and gentle handling your PARTAGAS SERIE E NO. 2 (5) will deliver its signature rich character and remain in excellent smoking condition.

History and Heritage
Partagas is one of Havana’s oldest and most storied houses, founded in 1845 by Don Jaime Partagas, and the brand is long associated with rich, full bodied Havana flavor. The Serie E line is a contemporary expression of that heritage, distilled into the compact and powerful No. 2 robusto format. Hand rolled at the Partagas factory with aged Cuban tobaccos, the Serie E No. 2 showcases the brand’s emphasis on traditional craftsmanship and robust character, earning a place among smokers who favor classic Cuban complexity and strength.
Tasting Notes
The Partagas Serie E No. 2 is a decidedly full-bodied cigar that opens with an immediate wave of rich earth and black pepper, quickly revealing deeper layers of espresso, dark cocoa and aged leather. Mid-smoke, core notes of toasted cedar and warm tobacco sap emerge alongside a subtle cedar spice and a hint of nutmeg, creating a complex, savory backbone. The finish is long and satisfying, with lingering mineral undertones and a creamy sweetness that tempers the cigar’s peppery bite. Aromatically it projects a dense, classic Havana bouquet, tobacco, sweet spice and a faint floral hum, that invites slow, contemplative draws.
Pairing Suggestions
Aged Caribbean rum, a well-aged, amber rum complements the Serie E No. 2’s molasses and cocoa notes, its vanilla and caramel tones softening the cigar’s pepper and leather. Espresso or ristretto, the concentrated coffee accentuates the cigar’s espresso and dark-chocolate elements while matching its intensity for a balanced, palate-cleansing interplay. 70–75% dark chocolate or a rich chocolate ganache, the bittersweet chocolate mirrors the cigar’s cocoa and toasted nuances, rounding off the finish and highlighting its subtle sweetness without overwhelming the spice.
