Padron Cigars is one of the most awarded cigar brands in history, producing all-Nicaraguan puros from family-grown tobacco. The 1926 Serie and 1964 Anniversary lines are considered benchmarks of premium cigar quality.
Padron is the standard by which all Nicaraguan cigars are measured, and the 1964 Anniversary and 1926 Serie lines stand among the finest cigars made anywhere in the world. The Padron family, having fled Cuba in the 1960s, built their operation from nothing into a brand synonymous with uncompromising quality. Every cigar is box-pressed and aged for a minimum of two and a half years, with the anniversary lines aged considerably longer. The consistency is remarkable -- cigar after cigar delivers the same rich, complex, and deeply satisfying profile of cocoa, espresso, leather, and earth. The quality control across the entire range, from the entry-level Padron series to the Family Reserve, is arguably the best in the industry. Pricing is fair relative to what is delivered, making Padron one of the best values in premium cigars. The only limitation is the house style itself: those seeking lighter, more nuanced profiles may find the consistently full-bodied approach somewhat monochromatic over time.
