Light: Took a little effort using matches, but pretty easy. Medium draw.

1st 3rd: Rich and somewhat spicy off the light. Coffee notes, and cocoa. Medium to full body with full flavor. Some woodsy notes and leathery sweet tobacco. Great sofar.

Ash: Stacked nice. Burning great with a gray ash and dark gray streaks. Holds on for about 1 ½”

2nd 3rd: If conceivable, it’s getting better. Smooth and creamy now. Cocoa and coffee. Touch of leather and spice to give it that low key toothy edge. Maybe some nice oils kicking in now too. Ahhhh Padronification! Has some strength to it now too, but not unpleasant at all. I detect some orange peel flavor now.

3rd 3rd: Everything described in the 2nd 3rd. Awesome, seriously. Creamy feel a little less now. Still getting the cocoa, coffee, oil and leather. Full body and flavor.

Overall impression: Incredible…period.

Thank you (you know who you are ;)

I remember you smoked a natural, too. Which did you like better?

Ya know...I was just talking to someone tonight about this. They're equally great. If....IF I had to chose...I'd go with the maduro on this one.

Excellent review!

I tried one of these sticks in Vegas last April while there on vacation. I still remember how good it tasted.

They didn't have any in stock at the B&M I went to there and had to settle for a bunch of the Padron 5000 Maduro's instead (also a good cigar).

I'm still looking for these in my area without much luck *sigh*
