This was my first Padron cigar and it is quite possibly the smoothest cigar I have ever smoked. I bought this a week or two ago and had it in the humidor and have been wanting to try it, so I fired it up yesterday. The taste was a touch peppery and not hot at all. The draw flowed very easily and the smoke flavor was quite nice, without any harshness at all.
This cigar measured 5×50 in the Robusto size and for a price of under $4, it really is a terrific smoke. This might define a need to purchase a whole box :o Grade: A.
Well, welcome to the Padron world 🙂 considering it’s your first Padron you should move on to the others. The Anniversarios are very popular – though I think Rocky Patel duplicated the blend in his 10 and 12 year aged ones. Padrons are good though huh? 🙂
This was 4 months ago, I’ve tried several since then. And yes, they are great cigars. Thanks for the comment!
