This is my first cigar review, so please be gentle with me. :ss
*****************************************
I smoked a Padron 3000 I picked up from the local B&M. Nice cigar, very smooth. 5 1/2" x 52rg. I clipped mine straight across the cap, but the draw was superb. A very well constructed cigar. The burn was perfect too. The first third reminded me of a very smooth Islay whisky. Then it shifted a bit to sweet coffee, cocoa, and malt. A little strong in vitamin "N" for me, but the flavor was excellent.
It's sort of a "plain" looking cigar, a dark brown maduro wrapper with a little brown band. Not one that would otherwise catch your attention if you were unaware of Padron's good reputation. The it's an all Nicaraguan cigar from Cuban seed tobacco.
I'd like to try the cigar in a smaller size to avoid the vitamin "N". I suspect aging the cigar for a few months would also make the flavors more rich. Recommended if you like "earthy" flavored cigars.
