Default Padron Legacy (Holt's) flavor opinions

I bought a box (10) of these about six months ago. According to the marketing at the Holt's site, it's a "tweaked" version of the Padron Serie 26. I have smoke 4 of these so far and they all taste exactly like the 26 to me - no complaints, it is a fine cigar, but I was expecting something a little bit different .

Anyone familiar with these? If you have tried them, do you detect any difference between these and the regular 26?

Dave,

I saw these on their site and wondered too. I am happy you have confirmed they are the same as I think the 26s can be a little cheaper.

Exactly Lu... these were $160 for a box of 10. I was wondering if they just hyped the birthday thing or if these had a tweak. I guess only Jorge & co. knows for sure . I surely cannot find a difference.

Thats not too bad a price.. I was thinking about pulling the trigger a while ago, as I love the padron 26's!
