I looked in cigar ratings and couldn't find anything on a cigar I received. Partagas de Luxe (Cuban) It has a black band with gold lettering and came in a gold tube with black lettering. It was roughly a standard corona size. Have you taken any for a test drive?
That's not in our database because it's machine made, not handmade. I haven't tried that particular frontmark, but I do enjoy machine-made Cuban cigars on occasion. They can be very nice smokes. The tobacco used is very nice, but it's short (or at least part of it is) rather than long, and (obviously) made by machine rather than hand. I find they're good golf course smokes or occasional smokes, a nice cheaper way to sample good Havana tobacco flavor.
