New or old?

Third release, just cracked a bundle that I've had resting for two months. They're quite nice already.

I have a couple second release torps left that are outstanding.

I'd heard some things about quality dropping on this batch......was curious before I resupply. Thanks.

**bigwhiteash** · 05-21-2009, 02:48 PM

No quality issues that concern me much.

I've smoked a bundle already with only a couple that had loose draw issues. nothing serious.

Had a Padron 3000 Natural for lunch

Maybe it is just my newbness, but how can you tell what release the Famous Nicaraguan 3000's are? I couldn't find anything referencing the releases on the website.

Only the old salty smokers know these kinds of things...very mysterious...

Oh, and Man O War Reunation and a Short Story.

**sammis** · 05-21-2009, 06:58 PM

Padron 1926 after a nice ride on the motorcycle.

First release had no bands.

Second release has bands, and when they sold out, there was a good while before they were back in stock.

Third release, were available when they returned to stock. I'm pretty sure they are still selling the third. Some vitolas are now out of stock. (Grande Robusto, for one).

I heard rumors that they changed factories after the second release, Originals were rolled at the Oliva facility.
