Default Padron 40th Anniversary maduro

WTF? Am I the only mf doing reviews on this site anymore?

Perfectly constructed cigar. Perfect draw. I wish Padron would send their rollers to Cuba to train them.

What a cigar. Sweet cocoa on the draw, smooth tobacco through the nose, woodsy finish. Not a lot of flavor changes, but the flavors that do come through are amazing. One minor burn correction at about 1".

Sweet cocoa flavors throughout.

This cigar was like a dessert that lasted 1 hour. Very similar flavors throughout, but the flavors are incredible.

Are they worth $30+ per stick? Ehhh....no. The Cuban Montecristo #3 that I smoked afterward was better and cheaper.

Good morning. Thanks for posting. You un-had me $30 a stick, though.

Appreciate the review, Mark! I'll try and get a couple reviews this week.

Same here. If my wife wants to get me one for Christmas, I'm fine with it. But I can get two '64s Exclusivos for $30, and enjoy them just as much.
