Today I am enjoying one of my premium favorites, Padron Serie 1926 No. 1 Natural Double Corona. It is a Nicaraguan puro 63/4 x 54 with typical flawless Padron construction. The attention to detail by the roller is always evident with a Serie 1926. Pre-light aroma made me drool. I toasted the foot as a little smoke emitted and danced above my torch. Lit her up and the full bodiedness hit me with a knock out punch from the start. I let her burn an inch and the flavors started to warm up. A mellow spicy flavor of latin coffee grounds and hints of Godiva semi-sweet chocolate coated my pallet. A wonderful finish that embraced the aged Cazadores Blanco 100% Blue Agave Tequilla I sipped during this reveiw. I often experiment in my cigar parings and I am absolutely amazed how the agave made the flavors of my Padron intensify. This stick has a well-balanced draw and produces a wonderful salt-n-pepper ash. Halfway into the smoke I began to taste some fine Corinthian leather, like that of those over-price Louis Vuitton purses my always wants for Xmas. She bitches about my cigars and she has a closet full of purses and shoes, go figure!
I rate this smoke a high 9 on a scale of 1 to 10! However, the maduros are a tad better.
