....I can say with 100% certainty that the Padron family does NOT "...throw out a nicotine bomb on occasion....". Aside from the whole empty / full stomach issue, I would say that with any handmade product, there is going to be some unit to unit variation, and hand made cigars are no exception.
With respect to quality, as has been mentioned, the '64, 26, 40th, 80th, etc. should all be the same, equally high quality. What you're paying for at the high end is aging time for the tobacco.
I've smoked lots of cigars over the years, but if I had to pick one and only one brand of smoke to "live with" I would pick Padron, hands down.
