I decided to quit hoarding my Padron's ( 80,40,45) and to my delight they came thru today. I have been sitting on this 40th for about 3-4 years and that Padron chocolate, sweetness and smooth flavor came thru. Perfect burn, great smoke and construction as the Padron's always do. Can't wait to smoke the 45 & 80 later this week. :-)

I've had the same single 40th in my humidor for 6 years now. Must be wonderful now, but think I'll wait another 4. :-)

Great cigar! I have not had one in a while, but you've whetted my appetite.

Great review.

Yeah the 40th maduro is one of my favorites. Padrons do not need rest though IMO. One thing about Padrons is that you always get a perfect draw. Try the 45th if you have not had one, probably their best.

I agree about them not needing rest. Padron ages their tobacco so well that they taste just as good after a month of storage as they do after 5 years. I just got a box of the 85th Family Reserve yesterday. Get that distinctive Padron intoxicating smell as soon as you open up the box.

That's a heck of a week. Looking forward to your thoughts on the other ones.

I smoked the 80th and the smoothness and richness came thru. This is by far the best some by Padron. I am smoking the 46th right now and this sucker is stronger then the others. Lots of more spice and Ligero. The flavors are different from the 40 & 80th. While they are smooth and rich the 46th is more in your face. I like that I can get different flavor profiles from similar cigars

I love that about Padrons too. They all have that similar rich flavor profile, but the slight differences across the different lines make each one a different experience.

Sounds like something I need to try.

Loved the 80th mad and just had the 85th (great out of box). Sitting on 40th nat and mad, don't know why I wait...delayed gratification and anticipation ;-)
