Cheap alternative to Padron 1964 Principe Maduro?

[jsaland]

I just ordered a box of these and they bring me to a happy place...

for around 200 a box though, and as a grad student, I can't smoke them daily.

can anyone suggest a similar cigar to that as a daily smoke?

Padron Delicias Maduro.

Not exactly an alternative but another very good smoke I'd pick up a box of Tatuaje Havana VI Angeles which usually go for around $118 shipped. If thats still too much I'd recommend if you haven't tried yet is Oliva Serie G Maduros. Those are around $75-$85 depending on size and are a fantastic smke for the price. Hope this helps.

I'm in the same boat as you with these. The regular line Padrons (4000's are my favorites) are a little more decently priced and still have a somewhat similar taste. That's the closest thing I've found, but man...I'd kill to find somethin cheap like the PAM's.

Camacho Negro was a tasty smoke I'd make a regular maduro go-to.

I don't think u will find a true alternative. But here is a really good price.

I might be wrong to express this opinion here but I believe there are a good handful of ISOM petite coronas (similar size to the Principes) that might fit that bill and be a lot less spendier.

I do love at Padron 1964 Principe given the chance.

And where are you getting them for this price?

Yes, do tell.

Do you think that's cheap for the Tat's ? My B&M always has them in stock for $108 per box.

One of these may fit the bill:

• La Veja Habana: The Early Years Silencio
• Plasencia TKO
• Joya de Nicaragua Antano Machito
• La Flor Dominicana Ligero #200
• La Flor Dominicana Double Ligero Chiselito
• CAO Brazilia Piranha
• Padron Delicias Maduro

And where are you getting them for this price?

Would be $116.95 shipped.

Age those delicias maduros for a couple of years and you will be amazed at the cigar you have got for a fraction of the cost of the 64's.

I concur, oliva serie G maduros (i like the belicosos):ss

 

[easyt]

What about Sancho Panza double maduro? I haven't had it...just wondering if it is even along the same lines as the PAM.

No.

Delicias Maduros it is!

Again, I'm going to ask a dumb question but by all means help a brothe out...


I've been told by many B&M patrons that the Padron 1964 uses the same filler as the thousand series, just aged 2 years longer. True?
