First Third

Lighting up a Dalias format requires a bit of care to ensure you do not scorch the foot, but once it catches, the draw is usually firm yet productive. The smoke output is surprisingly dense for a 43 ring gauge. You might expect a slap in the face immediately, but the 898 tricks you. It opens with a dry, dusty earthiness that feels almost restrained. There is a distinct cedar note here, but it is not the smell of fresh lumber. It smells more like the inside of an antique wardrobe

Partagas has been pumping out cigars since the mid-19th century, making it a cornerstone of Havana history. The 898 gets its name from the specific way the cigars are stacked inside the varnished box:

  • Rum: Havana Club 15yr - The natural sweetness and molasses in this aged Cuban rum cut right through the heavy leather notes of the cigar, creating a balanced contrast.
  • Whiskey: Lagavulin 1

    Product Description

    The Partagas 898 Varnished is a Dalias format Cuban cigar measuring 170 mm (6.7") with a 43 ring gauge, presented in distinctive varnished cedar boxes of 25.

    Suited to seasoned aficionados who appreciate Partagas at its most traditional, the 898 delivers a full-bodied experience in an elegant, old-world presentation. The name refers to the original catalogue number under which this vitola was registered.

    The Dalias format balances smoking time and flavour concentration well. The 43 ring gauge keeps the wrapper prominent, ensuring complexity alongside the brand's earthy power. Construction from Cuban-grown Vuelta Abajo tobaccos is reliable, with a steady burn and consistent draw. The flavour family is built around rich earth, seasoned leather, black pepper, and dark wood — bold and direct, with enough depth to reward patience across a leisurely session.

    Every Partagas 898 Varnished from Cuban Cigars For Sale is guaranteed authentic, sourced through verified Habanos channels with worldwide climate-controlled shipping.

    Underrated Gem in the Partagas Range

    Everyone talks about the Serie D and Lusitanias but the 898 Varnished deserves more attention. I've been smoking authentic Cuban Partagas cigars for fifteen years and this one consistently surprises me. With a year or two of extra aging, the rough edges smooth out beautifully and you're left with a refined, medium-full smoke that has depth. Coffee, cocoa, a touch of spice — it's all there. Shared one with a friend at a lounge in Brussels last month and he immediately asked where to buy Partagas 898 online. That says everything.

    Solid Daily Smoke for the Partagas Fan

    I go through a lot of cigars and the Partagas 898 has become a regular in my rotation. Consistent construction, reliable flavor, and a price that won't destroy your budget. You get that trademark Partagas earthiness with some sweetness in the second third that keeps things interesting. Burn is usually even, ash holds well. Not the most complex cigar in the world but it doesn't pretend to be. It's an honest, well-made Cuban stick.

    Classic Partagas Power in a Beautiful Package

    The Partagas 898 Varnished is a cigar that commands respect. That varnished finish on the box is gorgeous, and the cigars inside match the presentation. Medium-full body with a core of earth, pepper, and wood that's unmistakably Partagas. I lit one up at a cigar bar in Dubai and paired it with a single malt — absolute perfection. The draw was slightly tight on mine but opened up after the first third. If you enjoy bold Cuban cigars with character, the 898 delivers. Great value compared to some of the limited editions in the Partagas lineup.
