This crap is confusing.
LMAO!

Padron is a brand and most brands have different lines and each line usually has different sizes. Some Padron lines are:

Padron Serie 1926
Padron Anniversary 1964
Padron Thousand series

Now the different sizes of Padron 1926 are:

#1
#2
#6
#9
#35

and each one is the same tobacco but different diameters and different lengths. A Padron 1926 #1 is 6 3/4" long and "ring gauge" of 54 which means it's 54/64" in diameter. A Padron 1926 #9 is 5 1/4" long with a ring gauge of 56 so it's a little shorter and a little fatter than a #1. The Padron 1926s are probably the most expensive Padron (except for some of the limited edition ones which cost even more). A box of 1926 is 24 cigars and a box of #1 will go for around $450.00. If you don't want to spend that much, get him a five pack which will run about $100.00. I'd recommend a five pack for him for Christmas. There are two kinds of 1926s, natural wrapper and maduro wrapper, the maduro wrapped ones seem to be preferred by most cigar smokers over the natural ones.

Get him a five pack of Padron 1926 #9 or #2 maduros and he'll be a very happy guy. I think you can order them from famous.smoke.com
