At its best, the Cuban Partagas Lusitania is one of the finest cigars ever produced. It annoyed me that the Perdomos borrowed the name for a very average cigar. Albert Argenti of Perdomo Cigars assured me on another BBS that the Perdomo Lusitanias are premium long filler. I found them to be long filler, but just an average cigar; nothing to compare with Perdomo's best. I believe the Pre-Embargo Cuban Counterfeits that Perdomo is still producing are a far superior cigar for about the same money.
