Did You Know...

Interesting replies. I learned a lot. Thanks gents. Let me clarify exactly what the guy said.
I was buying a few of the 3000's he came out and I told him I really liked these 3000's. He said "That is the same blend as the 1964, Age it for three years and you have a 1964."

Thanks for the additional (correct)information.

What would be fun is to have some aged 3000's and do a blind taste test between the two.

I am no expert and many good answers have been presented, but clearly there is a distinct difference in the two products mentioned.

For example, I went to the Volkswagen dealer the other day and bought a new '10 Beetle. The salesman told me, "Age that for a few years, then paint it 'guards red', and you have a Porsche." It's made from the same parts, right?

Hey, badwhale, that's an odd coincidence. I ran into a guy over by Tampa that gave me some of those 3000's to try. He looked a little shady, though. I bet they're fake...

I am sorry to tell you that your local B&M info is incorrect.
Though all Padron's .....Series, 1964 and 1926 are sungrown.......none use similar tobacco grades or blends.

That's good to know. I will not waste three expecting a 1964. But a little age on them won't hurt.

I will tell him that he is wrong next time I see him and ask him where he got that kind of information. Probably form a Padron Sales Rep I would imagine. Thanks everyone.
