I have been waiting to smoke this particular cigar sine I first got my humidor, roughly 7 months ago. Once I finally had a place to store and 'age' (if seven months counts...) a few sticks I picked up a Padron 26 Principe natural. I had not smoked one before, so I wanted to let it sit for a while. Needless to say, but I am going to say it anyway, it was AMAZING!!!

I've said it before, and I'll say it again - The 1926 Anniversary Padrons are some of the best cigars money can buy.

Hard to argue with a Padron. :-)

I'm a fan favorite of the 1964 though the 1926 is pretty awesome as well...I like it when others through the gaunlet down on Big Ash to produce...Keith your up...

Nice ash! I tend to prefer the 1964 Maddie but the 26 is one fine smoke
[Reply]

nice!:-)

wish i had the money to spend on boxes of either :-) or i would smoke them much mroe often
[Reply]

agreed, I smoke the 64 principes like it's going out of style, and I would smoke more 26's too, but my B&M charges ways too much for them. great cigar though.
[Reply]

The 64's are nice cigars I haven't had any 26's. I wish the cost on padrons was cheaper.
[Reply]

Very nice!!!

When you consider the cost of maintaining all of that tobacco for five plus years and assuring such quality control the price is really quite reasonable, IMHO.
