The launch of the Partagás Línea Maestra Bucharest, Romania.
Hello dear reader,
In the northern part of Bucharest, an unforgettable evening unfolded as cigar enthusiasts gathered to celebrate the spirit of Cuba at Habanos Nights. This event wasn’t just about cigars, it was a full immersion into Cuban culture and, marking the Romanian launch of the much-anticipated luxurious Partagás Línea Maestra. Thanks to our gratuitous host, El Unico, we enjoyed fine rums and authentic Cuban music and dancing. The night managed to capture the vibrant energy of Cuba, leaving guests with memories as flavourful as the cigars they enjoyed.
An Evening of Exquisite Rum and Exclusive Experiences
The event had no shortage of premium drinks, with two bars ensuring that each guest had a glass in hand. My personal favorite stop was the Havana Club bar, where the Selección de Maestros was on full display. This rum, which you can easily find yet of exceptional quality, offered a smooth, balanced richness that perfectly complemented the evening’s celebratory vibe. But the true highlight for me was The Don Navarro, an exclusive, limited-edition rum that’s become something of a legend. Sipping this rare gem felt like a privilege—its scarcity and depth of flavor only added to the luxurious atmosphere of the night.
Introducing the Partagás Línea Maestra
The centerpiece of the evening was, of course, the Partagás Línea Maestra line, presented in its entirety to the Romanian audience. Before diving into the main cigar, guests had the pleasure of starting the night with a classic Partagás D4, a fitting prelude to the main event. The Línea Maestra line embodies the strength and character that Partagás is known for, bringing an updated elegance to the brand’s portfolio. Each cigar in this line feels crafted with precision, honoring the brand’s legacy while offering something fresh for aficionados. I heard so many opinions on this line in the last two years since it was announced in Havana but eventually after enjoying them everyone agrees it’s a great addition to the Habanos portfolio.
The Rhythm of Cuba: Music, Dancing, and Craftsmanship
No Cuban-themed event would be complete without the lively sounds and sights of Havana. Throughout the night, Cuban music and dancers brought an authentic rhythm to the venue, immersing guests in the island’s festive spirit. There was even a raffle, adding an element of excitement and camaraderie as guests shared in the joy of the evening.
But what truly captured everyone’s attention was the presence of a skilled Cuban torcedora. Watching her work was mesmerizing, her hands moved with the practiced elegance of someone deeply committed to their craft. Her presence reminded everyone of the dedication that goes into each cigar, adding a deeper appreciation for Cuban cigars and the artistry behind them.
A Night to Remember
The Habanos Nights in Bucharest was a celebration of Cuban heritage, culture, and luxury, brought to life with unforgettable style. Between the exclusivity of The Don Navarro, the launch of the Partagás Línea Maestra, and the vibrancy of Cuban music and dancing, the event was a resounding success. It was a night that honored tradition while embracing the luxurious spirit of Habanos, leaving everyone with a taste of Cuba that will linger long after the cigar ends.
Wishing you rich flavors and good company—until we meet again
