Padron 2000 Robusto Maduro Cigar - 1 Single

Date Added: Saturday 09 April, 2016 by Andy

Not a big fan of New World cigars however this one is lovely, a real 'desert' cigar with lots of dark chocolate and sweet spice. Always a very light and airy draw so helps to take it easy so as not to overheat it. Looks a bit rough to the eye but never judge a cigar by its wrapper, very consistent, will have a few of these in the humidor when I fancy something a bit sweeter.

cigar looked very rough, very toothy and veiny. The foot was loosely packed with stem like parts poking out. When I cut the cap it produced lots of dust and chunks that kept getting in my mouth right through the smoking. The draw was very loose. Very high smoke production which smelled lovely. Started off peppery with no other real flavours, after a few draws it became apparent that there was an very loosely packed bit running right through the center of the cigar. A little sweetness and coffee did show up for a couple of draws but was overshadowed by hot bitter taste. Tried to smoke as slow as possible but I guess the build quality totally ruined any flavours I might have got. Hopefully I just got a bad one but I won't be buying another to find out. Burn was all over the place. I thought Padron were meant to be a higher end non Cuban but it looked more on par with a Jose l Piedra.

This is an excellent cigar. Medium to full bodied. Sweet tobacco aroma. Rich flavours of dark chocolate and espresso coffee. Easy draw. In a nutshell, everything I want in a cigar. I know this will be controversial to many, but personally I prefer these over any Cuban I've tried. Try them for yourself and make up your own mind. I don't think you'll be disappointed.
