A Very Special Purchase

Most NC's that old can become "papery" tasting. The tobacco is already quite mature at the time of rolling. Oils come off into the cello. That being said, I have never had a Padron that old, so maybe your experience was different?

Nice score.

It looked like they only had 2 or 3 boxes of these. The guy said his dad had just had them in the storage humidor the whole time. I imagine they got lost for a while or something.

We'll see how these are. I'm glad to hear that though because that will keep me from going back and buying more before giving these a try.
