Padron Magnum Maduro.......

[SKYDIVNEKD]

The new CA magazine came out and in it, they have evaluated the aforementioned cigar. Now, I can even begin to give a review sufficient to the one's I've seen before, however, I must concur with the rating given by CA.

The cigar lights well, burns well and tastes great! :love: All the way to the nub! I just had another one while on vacation and it was a good as the last one I had. This one had been aged about eight months since receiving the box I ordered.

I know we've commented on this before, but the recent eval in CA made me post it again.

Just my .02 cents worth.

Again, one of my favorite "A" sized cigars. :thumbs:

 

[PuroBrat]

How do you smoke an "A"? I have never had one, and they look like they would take half a day to smoke.

Padron IMHO has the best Go-To sticks. Very consistant, always good. I may have to get one of the Mags and give it a shot when I have a few hours

PB, it's a great size for watching a football or baseball game.

Or at the Horse Races!! :lookup:

A sizes are definately 18-holers. The Padron MM is a very good example of this vitola. Curious...what rating did it get in CA? It's been listed on the CA website at 94 for a long time.

FT, I think you would spend more time savoring this cigar than playing golf. JMHO

I saw those somewhere recently, seemed like a good deal!

 

[SKYDIVNEKD]

FT...they got a 93 this go around!

Leebo....where did you see them and at what price? Cigars for less has them for $157ish. Not a BAD price. ???

These are great tasting sticks... especially with some age on 'em! I haven't had one in awhile but I enjoyed smoking it while working in the yard! It sure made yardwork a bit more tolerable... LOL!

Brother Wade, I hate to tell you this, but here in Texas, if you smoke while working in the yard, you have to stop every 2 or 3 minutes to let the sweat drip off your cigar ??? , I reckan in your neck of the woods, smokin and Mowin is a bit easier

I agree with you tho, when the weather is good, I love a good smoke while I push the mower along. It does make the job much more pleasent.

I have never had one of these<wink>...but for yard smokes, I like Connies and JR Alts. I try to let the SO do the yard work though. I'll push the mower and weed eat if she asks, but I just assume spend my week ends fishing.

What are your normal sticks? Partagas 150s? Man, I can hardly even bring myself to spend $9 on a special event 'gar!

First off... Partagas 150's aren't my normal smoke... LOL! I'm not a P150 fan... didn't think they were worth the price as regular Partagas are just as tasty IMO. :0

When I'm out in the yard I'll smoke what I enjoy as I don't have a separate bunch of cigars that are reserved for yard work. A lot of herfers prefer smoking bundled cigars or seconds while golfing or doing yard work but for me.... I don't have a lot of time to smoke during the week so when I get a chance to light up (even while during yard work) I'll grab a stick that I know I'll enjoy! I like the Padron Magnum Maddie for yardwork because it's a big stick that'll keep me company for a couple of hours and I know it'll taste great too. Heck... I've even smoked Opus X and VSGs while out pulling weeds... sure makes weeding a lot more fun!

I guess what I'm trying to say is that I'll always smoke a cigar that I'm going to enjoy... whether it be on the golf course, in the yard or at a party! Try this McP... smoke one of your favorites while you're doing stuff around the house and let me know what you think. I think you'll find the chore a lot more tolerable...

Aloha,

Wade

Wade...I agree with your point, as I am in the same boat right now. But I do keep seconds and alts around for times I may not be able to finish a stick. I find it a lot easier to toss a dollar stick than a 7 dollar stick. Just my $.02.

[wk-mang]

Bruddah Emo... GREAT POINT! I also have 2nds and bundled cigars too for times as you described... I want to smoke a 'gar but I know I'll have to toss it and it is definitely less painful to toss a $1 stick!

There is a chore that I do that I'll always grab a bundled 'gar or 2nd to smoke... and that's washing the cars! My 6 year old daughter loves to help me wash the cars and I can't tell you how many times it's turned into a water-fight.... LOL! At least I can herf half the stick before it gets drenched... LMAO!

Aloha,

Wade

When you break it down into the major components, Emo has my plan all sewn up!!! :0

I wish I had the grass to mow to be able to enjoy a puro. Unfortunately, on my acre, all I have is weeds and dirt. So when I whip out the riding mower, I get nothing but dust all over me. I don't think dirt and a fine one mix too well.

Sigh......
