What's New

 

"This pressed beauty is rolled in the recently expanded Padron factory in Esteli, Nicaragua, under the watchful eye of Jose Orlando Padron, his son Jorge and the rest of the family members who ensure that the 5 million or so cigars they produce each year are of impeccable quality.  This is perhaps the finest of the line, just blossoming with flavor right from the furst puff.  It's a complex soke with perfect balance, showing flavors of chocolate, coffee and nuts, as well as some black cherry.  The cigar has a finish so long it seems to never leave the palate.  The 97 points it was awarded is the hightst score we have given a recent-production cigar in many years."
