Quick Smoke: Padilla Series ’68 Robusto
Saturday, January 10th, 2009Each Saturday and Sunday we’ll post a Quick Smoke: not quite a full review, just our brief take on a single cigar.
This five inch by 50 ring gauge cigar, which had been resting in my humidor since I reviewed it over a year ago, was better than I remembered. Gone were many of the underperforming physical characteristics, and the spicy flavor of pepper, clove, and molasses seemed more nuanced than before. Consider the Series ’68 Robusto $5 well spent—especially if you’re patient enough to give it some time to improve.
Verdict = Buy.

I can’t say I have had the same experience with the one I had. The one I had a month ago, although no time in the humidor, was one of very bland taste and some minor draw issues. A beautiful cigar with a very bland flavor.
