Non-cuban equivalent of Partagas Shorts?

[mikenmar]

I'm almost out of Partagas Shorts, which are one of my favorite cigars, and my usual source is out of stock.

Is there a non-Cuban cigar that closely matches the Partagas Short?

I've not found one that matches the Short's flavor profile. There are good NC small smokes available, but if you're looking for an exact flavor match, I'm afraid you're out of luck. The L-200 and L-250 from LFD in Natural and Oscuro are great as are Principe and #35 from Padron.

#35 :love:

Also, there are some tatuaje, hell I cant remember the sizes that are very good.

Agreed. I would also suggest the Illusione 68.

I've tried the Tatuaje, they're too sweet for me.

Yeah, I realize there's nothing that'll quite match the flavor of the PS's, was hoping for an acceptable approximation though.

Excellent, I'll give them a try, thanks.
