One of the most significant commemorative releases in Cuban cigar history, the Partagás 160 Aniversario Humidor honors a legendary brand legacy. Unveiled in 2005, this limited edition collection celebrated the 160th anniversary of the legendary Partagás factory, one of Havana's most iconic cigar institutions. The release honored over a century and a half of cigar-making excellence from the brand founded by Jaime Partagás in 1845.
A Historic Commemorative Release
This distinguished humidor collection was produced in an extremely limited run of just 250 numbered units worldwide. Each exquisite humidor contains 100 cigars, making this release highly sought after by discerning collectors and enthusiasts. The presentation features a special "160 Aniversario" band that distinguishes these cigars from standard Partagás productions, marking them as true collector's pieces.
