single cigar

The Padrón 1926 Serie No. 1 Natural is a long, elegant expression of the award-winning 1926 blend, crafted in celebration of José Orlando Padrón’s 75th birthday. This 6 3/4 x 54 box-pressed size showcases the full depth and refinement of Padrón’s five-year-aged Nicaraguan tobaccos, delivering a richly layered, impeccably smooth experience from first draw to final ash.
