The best 1964 I’ve ever had. Beautiful construction and perfect draw ever. I recommend punching all padrons to control the airflow and smoke production, especially with the larger ring gage.
These start with a beautiful chocolate, leather, and pepper note that amplifies as the cigar burns. Cedar adds to the profile early one. A thick oil coats the palate with a long finish that lasts between each puff. The chocolate notes intensify with each third. Box worthy smoke that delivers amazing flavor every single time.

Padron 1964 anniversary Hermoso Maduro’s are the standard by which I match all other brands. They never disappoint. Well constructed. Aged for 3+ years and a good even burn. The entire 1964 anniversary line is a treat.

Awesome in every way.rich and chocolaty, medium amount of black pepper, classic Padron taste. Burns great and draws even better, the consistency of their quality is why they are who they are. With most brands I’ll gravitate more toward one size or another, but it just doesn’t seem to matter with them, everything they do is damn near perfect.

An hour +/- is a perfect smoke time for me. What’s even more perfect is enjoying that time with this Padron. It’s epic. Full our Padron flavours and performance condensed into a shorter time. The box press also makes the larger ring gauge perfectly manageable. Love it.

I enjoyed it but it’s a little thicker ring gauge than I generally prefer. Good quick smoke when you want. Padron but are shorter on time. Great draw as always

The 1964 Hermoso Maduro has the Padron refined blend featuring flavor notes of cedar, cocoa powder, walnuts and coffee. I was getting subtle hints of cinnamon. It is usual for the Padron Maduro blends to have a dark rich and sweet undertone throughout the cigar. I enjoyed it. Not box worthy for me.

Who says big things don’t come in small (short) packages! The 1964 Anniversary Hermoso Maduro delivers big, bold flavors of espresso and baking chocolate by the boatload, with the quality construction and even burn that you expect from Padron. You won’t find better pricing, or better shipping and service, than what you get from Oxford!

In the battle of Padron maduro vs natural, I have to go with Maduro on this one. Thick rich creamy smoke. A short smoke that I can get through in around 30 minutes if I need to.
