Padilla Miami?

Mr B · 07-17-2009, 01:49 PM

Alright guys/gals. I need to get educated here. 2 questions. First, is the Padilla 8/11 the old Pepin blend or the new blend?
Second, which band is the 8/11? Is it the one with the Brown, Cream and Burgandy band with Miami writen in gold on cream background or is the 8/11 the band with more black and red with Miami writen in gold on red background?

Thanks
oh and pics would help greatly if possible.

The 8/11 is the old Pepin blend and the band is mostly black and red.

The new one rolled by Padilla in Miami is the Cream with gold and red.

Old one on the bottom, new one on the top.

There were alot of the new blend released with the old style band. The new band has just been used for a few months. You can tell it's the new blend if the cigar is a bit sweeter.

They are good, I like them better than the Pepin Blend.

I think that opinion had a slight majority back when the new blends first came out. Same held true for the other post-Pepin blends, many people seemed to think they were at least as good as the Pepins.

Thanks for the info guys.
I had the new blend at the Barn Herf on Saturday and liked it.

Thanks to Kriss, I now have a nice 8/11 to compare them with.
