Padron 3000M - Sad Times. - Page 2

I've never had an original Padron I have enjoyed. The high end ones are great, but the X000 and originals are not great. The natural wrapper just gives me a cheesy bread flavor, makes my stomach churn thinking about it and I've tried 4 of them! The maduro just tastes like burning tobacco, no coffee or chocolate to me, except in the Ambassador size, which were pretty good.

This is one of my all time fav sticks so I urge you to stick with it Brotha! Must have been a fluke.

I don't think it is fair to expect the same quality of a x000 and an anniversary...

In a way it is fair...because when I used to smoke padrons, I would rather smoke a padron 3000 or padron 5000 as opposed to an anniversary...why you ask?
because the padron 3000's and 5000's dollar for dollar were a much better value...of course that was then...several years ago

I haven't smoked any of the Thousand series lately but, I sure miss those Fumas they used to make. They were Cheap and full of that Classic Padron Flavor.

I never smoke a stick from a B&M until it sits for a week or more, most keep ther sticks waaaaaaaaaaay to wet. I find I like mine at 65% or less (closer to 60%) when above that they have burn problems and taste like crap. The Padron 1000 series is one if the most consistant out there and I've probably smoked 2 dozen boxes with no issues.

Sorry you had problems may the cigar fairy bring you many good ones in the near future.
