Padron 5000

the 5Ks are definitely worth another try. I like these, the 3000 and the 2000, maduro preferably. Also, welcome to the board.

Hey thanks. Yeah, I've been wanting to try the maduros.
As for the humidor, I took the puck out and its dropping. The temp outside is starting to hit the low 40s at night, we'll start freezing soon. Things should be drying out. In three or four weeks I'll be hitting you'all up on how to keep the humidor humid. ha

Hey,

I hate to bump this, but I see I got on The Silent Chamber's index of reviews and I just couldn't stand how I left this.
Got the humidor sorted out right after I posted, got a couple of the 5000's sitting for a while, and tried again.

I liked it a lot. I guess what struck me was that it was like smoking three Padron's at the same time. You get a lot of smoke and flavor.

I don't know if it tasted like spice at the beginning or end, it didn't taste like chocolate or anything like that, I suspect my pallet is crude. I do know that it was 1.5 hours really well spent. Setting up in my smokers hooch it was like floating in water.

I got a penny jar set aside for nothing else but a box of these.
Patience, patience.
