Padron Serie 1926 40th Maduro --my 1st review (pics)

Padron Serie 1926 40th Anniversary Maduro. Incredible. Beyond words. The best cigar I have ever had. Perfect construction, perfect pre-light and post-light draw. This smoke just belched clouds of thick, white smoke. Ash was solid and white. $35 at Cigar Affair in Maumee, Ohio.

The flavor of the wrapper is incredible. Strong cocoa and earth notes, and something else that I cannot put my finger on (pun intended). The aroma on this cigar is utopian. Otherworldly. The best cigar from *any* country that I have ever had, in my life.

Smoking time: 1 hour 45 minutes

Drinks: Patron Margarita and ice water


Construction: 10/10

Value: 8/10

Appearance: 10/10

Aroma: 10/10

Burn: 10/10 (very even with extremely little assistance)


Conclusion: I would buy it again in a heartbeat for a special occasion. I will probably buy another stick in a month and half. An ace of a smoke.

I am not sure how they do it but I have never had a bad one from Padron yet? I am not sure how he does it but the control process they have is something else. Give the natural a try in this line it is out of this world.
