What are your thoughts on...(Padron, Drew Estate, LGC Content)

What are your thoughts on the La Gloria Cubana Serie R Maduro No.4, Padron Londres, and La Vieja Habana Cedar Chateau No. 2? Tastewise, construction, etc...


I just bought two of each of these and I like to hear people's thoughts on cigars before I smoke one so I can compare my observations to other's and to see if I can see the nuances everyone else does.

Just something I like to do

LA Vieja: I don't care for this one. The Early Years line is much better, imo.

Re: What are your thoughts on...(Padron, Drew Estate, LGC Content)

I like Padron in general....the La Veija Habana is a good smoke too.
Padron is creamy and Medium probably. La veija is medium. Maybe a bit spicy. Good. Not had the LGCSR5 yet. wow thats an abbreviation haha. Check out top25cigar.com. they've always got good reviews if you cant find them on here. Good luck.

Yep, I look at Top 25 as well, but I like more personal responses as well, so I come here and post this.

Thanks for the replies thus far!

And yes, that is quite an abbreviation!

Re: What are your thoughts on...(Padron, Drew Estate, LGC Content)

I'd suggest NOT seeing what others think of them before you smoke them...that way you won't have any preconceived notions of what the cigar might be.

Only one I've had of the bunch is the LGCSRM4 -- a very good cigar with a kick to it. It's a favorite of mine; but one I can't have every day. Be sure to eat something before smoking it ... you'll get a buzz either way.

Re: What are your thoughts on...(Padron, Drew Estate, LGC Content)

I would say you can always find a problem with any cigar but the Padrons offer very good consistency overall.
The Londres was one of my very first vitolas that I purchased on a regular basis from Padron.
I think it is a very good value overall.
Don't have any experience with the others you list.

It doesn't get any more personal than the reviews in the Top25 Review database. The reviews are done by average people like you and me. Not paid professional shills you find in the magazines. In fact, many CS gorillas have reviews in there.

The LGC Serie R Maduro is a rich and tasty cigar, but has just a bit too much nicotine for me. First cigar that made me nearly lose my cookies.
