Padron 44th
 

So I spotted a box of these at a local b&m. I have never seen them before... seen the 45th. Just wondering what the deal was

They took a 45th and chopped a little bit off:ss

They're another Family Reserve stick the Padrons created. Originally, these were only given out at Padron special events, and was blended specifically by the Padron family for their own enjoyment.

I think the 44 is a natural wrapper and the 45 is Maduro

Re: Padron 44th
 

44 comes in natural and maduro
45 comes in maduro and natural as well.

:r

Someone has to talk to their marketing department. Too much inherent confusion.

Re: Padron 44th
 

Yes I think this is correct. The only difference between the 44th and 45th is that the 45th a Toro and the 44th is a Torpedo. Both come in nattie and maddie, though it's harder to find the nattie for whatever reason (which is too bad, since although I like the Padron maduros too, I prefer the naturals usually).

Re: Padron 44th
 

Is that the only difference? The 44th seems to be connected with '26 and the 45th with '64

Re: Padron 44th
 

I kinda thought they were both technically '26, but I could be wrong. The ORIGINAL 44ths (the old ones that the Padrons gave away at events and such) were the blend they based the 45th on, though it's tweaked slightly and obviously a totally different shape with it's severe boxpress. But I'm not sure if the currently sold 44ths are the same blend as the original 44ths, or simply a torp version of the 45th ...
