Barry, I look forward to trying this Padron, it sounds like something special. The Anniversarios, both the 26 and 64, are always favorites with me. I will hit up my local B&M today and hope they have them. William D is either very poorly informed or is smoking the wrong cigars.

First of all I had not found another cigar that has the complexity of the Padron  1926.  So when I started reading the blogs about the Padron family reserve 45 maduro, it piqued my interest.  I went to my favorite cigar shop to see if I could find them.  As it turned out, they had one box tucked away in the corner of the humidor.  The price was a little off putting.  I usually don't spend that much on a single cigar.  But having such a great experience with the 1926, I couldn't resist.  I bought two and safely tucked them away for a special occasion.  I was telling a friend, a member of my  Cigar Therapy Group, of my find.  He got very excited and wanted to share the experience together.  As I was driving to meet my wife after work, he started texting me.  How many can we get?  Jim wants in .....Mike won't spend the money...Mike wants in!  I politely excused myself early from my wife's function and rushed home to meet the guys.  Dave generously brought a case of Guinness.  It turned out to be a beautiful night to sit outside around a fire.  I had already put my firepit and patio furniture in the basement.  But this was an emergency meeting of the Cigar Therapy Group Dave and Mike insisted on pulling out my neatly stowed furniture.  We sat around the fire anxiously awaiting Jim's arrival. we could not wait to light up the highly anticipated Padron 45.  Jim arrived with his copy of the latest edition of cigar aficionado and his travel humidor.  The moment had arrived.  Jim was reading aloud about the Padron 45 maduro as I brought out the box with the coveted cigars that the cigar shop have given me when I bought the last three.  The box is beautiful.  On the inside lid it bears the image and story of "the little hammer".  We passed the box around the circle as part of the ritual each of us smelling the box as we took a cigar.  Initially we noticed the powerful spice that almost overwhelmed the palette.  It didnt take long to notice the dark chocolate and coca undertones.  As we smoked the flavors become more and more balanced.  All of us smoked, until we could not hold the stub anymore.  We all agreed that this is another great cigar from the Padrons!!  Definately to be shared amoung friends. Highly recommended by the Cigar Therapy Group.                      Jim thought this would be blog-worthy.

Every cigar has a blend, these blend create notes. If your palate is sensitive enough one can pick up various flavors. If this was not the case cigar manufacturers would not give a synopsis including various notes. William,

From the first draw until the last the cigar was consistent. I noticed an almost chocolate hint to it throughout with a very smooth finish. The burn was even. The ash was white and tight. It took an hour and fifteen minutes to smoke, and I was sad it came to an end. It never drew hot or sour. This cigar is now the gold standard for me. It simply was the best smoke I ever had. I rated it a 98 and only because I had to cut the bands off to smoke it down. (Heck, I would have wrung it out if I could have.) It came out of the humidor at 76% rh and the draw was perfect. I know it is expensive but once in a while you have to treat yourself. I'm really happy I bought two and look forward to the next night I give myself the roayl treatment. If you're looking for an incredible smoke this is it. Ignore the price and find out what it's like to enjoy a truly fine cigar. You'll feel like a king!
