"Unlike my past experience with Padrons"

I received several packs of the 2000 series and WOW what a difference from the Padrons I've had in the past. These were terrible. The only way to describe them is harsh and horrible. No cholocate, coffee or earthy flavor to them at all. It tasted like burnt leather. I like a leathery quality at times but these did not resemble the taste I had last year. On a positive note, the construction was excellent as was the draw. Even more discouraging were the other packs that I got, the Churchill and the 5000 packs: all of them had the same unpleasant taste. I've been through many boxes of Padrons mainly the 2000, 3000 and Churchill and enjoyed all of them. Maybe this is simply a bad batch because Padron prides itself on quality. I'm not sure it's worth spending more money on these in the future. Hope you have better luck.

"Excellent cigar"

This is the first medium bodied cigar of the Padron collection I have smoked. That said, I was struck by the calm, mellow smoke and the variety of flavors that came from it. I really enjoyed this cigar and would definitely smoke another. It wasn't buy a box worthy, but it was an excellent cigar.

"Very rich tasting"

A very rich tasting cigar,with nice appearance and draw.I found it to be more full bodied,that stays with you for a while.Very nice with your fav. drink.

"What you expect from Padron"

I started with a box of 5000's and they were so good a bought another. I generally burn one to two sticks a week at home and finding the hour + to finish a 5000 didn't always work. I decided to go to the 2000 for a 35 to 45 minute smoke hoping that the Padron quality and flavor would be the same, and I wasn't dissapointed. You can't go wrong with a Padron Cigar!!

"One of best cigars I've tasted"

Awesome from the moment I lit it through the finish, not to spicy at the end.

"My everyday smoke. Smoke filled."

Padron 2000 Natural is one of the most underrated cigars on the planet. Depending on where you buy them they are around $3 per stick. They are as good as smokes costing three times as much. Don't let them know in Miami. I like the price. And I love the cigar.

"babe magnet"

Had one today. Solid construction, full flavor. Toward the end it wanted to go out too easily. But that's what the matches are for. Only Mo or his brother, Ron, would complain about such. The label does not say where it's made. Once I discovered it was Cuban seed from Nicaragua, it tasted even better. Nicaragua is making the best cigars in the world these days. I'm not throwing out my Dominicans, but the humidor will be adding a box of Padron ASAP.

"WOW"

What a nice smoke. I do not know why these are so cheap they are unreal.

"Very tasty cigar"

I really enjoy these. Very, very good
