Well, it is officially Cinco De Mayo today, so... smoking one. Delicate wrapper but a good smoke.

OK. Please forgive me for my enthusiastic comments in this thread, it seems to be a picture thread and I’m probably talking too much. But …

This is my first Padron cigar. I know, you can’t believe it, I’ve been smoking cigars on and off for 40 years. Until I joined this forum, I just hadn’t tried that many and I used to just buy boxes of what I liked. Very little experimentation. I had (are you sitting down?) never had a Padron cigar before today. This Natural 3000 is the first.

Wow! It’s the Platonic Ideal is what a cigar is. I haven’t even finished it yet and next year it may be another cigar … but if you put a gun to my head and said, “You can have an unlimited supply of cigars for the rest of your life, never running out of them, and they’re free. But you have to pick one and forgo ever smoking another one for as long as you live.”

Today? It would be this cigar. Wow! This is what a good cigar should be. At any price point. I’m gobsmacked.

@Pugman1943 you can stop asking Rod if you can initiate legal proceedings against me for this oversight. Hopefully I’ve rectified this situation to your satisfaction.

A. Fuente, Padron and Pepin - a few of my all-time favorite manufacturers. Glad you're enjoying it.

If you like Padron, consider reading the story behind Jose, and why there's a picture of a hammer on the bands.

I saw that. They have a 25 minute with Jose in the website that is terrific! The hammer is explained.

And Pepin is a genius of cigars, too.

I’m happily surprised how good these cigars are. Great smoke output, nice flavor and aroma, near flawless construction, and very affordable.
