Padrón Serie 1926 No. 35

I am shocked.
Padron Annis are my favorite.
The 35 is the ultimate for me.
I have had at least 10 boxes or so of them and have yet to find a bad one.
I think this was bad luck or you could have had an off day on your taste buds.
That does happen at times.

ya I figured I'd get a lot of that from this post. You might be right. Maybe it was just not a good day or something. But I didn't have a good experience.

Definitely don't give up and give another one a shot.
How does your B&M store them? That may have had something to do with it perhaps.

I get to hang out often with the Padron family since I am in South Florida and since I have known Orlando, George and Rudi for nearly 20 years now. Gotta tell you, when the Padron family can smoke anything at all they want from their line and all you see in their hands is the '35, that says a whole lot. In fact, this was blended for the old man himself.

I would bet it would have to do with storage at the B&M. Just a wild guess.

Same. I absolutely love these, and find them incredibly consistent. Too bad you didn't enjoy yours more.

Do you ever notice a loose draw with the 1926's? I mostly smoke the 2000's, 5000's and 1964's but I recently smoked (or tried to) a 1926 No. 9. Draw was so loose I pitched it after 10 minutes. This past week I tried a No. 1 and decided to use a punch, but the draw was so loose I didn't even bother to light it. It was almost like a hollow tube. Both cigars had been in my humi for several months. I called Padron and ended up talking to Cesar and Rudi. They asked me to send it to them so they could investigate. I know they will replace them but I'm more curious what the deal is.

I have never had what I would call a "loose" draw. However, Padron Annis are known for very effortless draw in spite of the hard feeling box press. You really don't have to try very much to draw smoke.
