Padron Cigar of the Year Sampler

Excellent

This was a gift to my boyfriend. He loved it.

I love my Padrons

My friend sent regards saying the cigars were fresh and super smokes! Thank you C.I. !!

I purchased this sampler after reviewing the Cigar Aficionado top 25 list from 2004-2017. I knew I wanted to try the Padrons. Three cigars were selected number one in that 14-year period - more than any other brand. What a great bargain to find a selection of the three top cigars in a sampler. Buying them separately (if you could find them) or in boxes would blow the budget for me. I jumped on this sampler and was delighted. The Family Reserve 1964 was very full flavored and strong, but very good. It admittedly pegged my meter, but it was all good. The other two selections were deliciously creamy and so tasty. I loved this sampler and will pick up another in my next order. I've determined my humidors must have Padrons for those special occasions when only a superlative smoke will suffice. Pricey but worth every cent. I recommend these if you haven't tried them. The sampler won't break your bank and you will be glad you sprung for these top shelf smokes.

These are great cigars normally but unfortunately this time they arrived pretty dehydrated - there were significant cracks and flaking around the foot of two of them. A serious downer.

Truly amazing Flavors from start to finish. The burn was excellent.
