Wish these were more readily available. I may prefer these to the tried and true 2000 Maduro. Great size that always burns perfectly. Can’t go wrong with the value you get from any of these thousand series Padrons.

Really liked this. The ring gauge on this cigar was perfect. I generally go for the 2000 vitola but this one blew me away in flavor and mouth feel. The flavors were absolutely on point. Dark chocolate, cedar and coffee. It burned well and the draw was perfect . Flavors just popped so much more for me in this vitola. I want to find this in a natural as that is my preferred wrapper. Another great offering from oxford!

I don’t go in for this size very often. It has a loose draw as do most Padron, but in this smaller gauge it’s hard to regulate the temperature so it can get bitter quickly. Even the 2000 can suffer from this problem, so it’s hard to avoid in the londres. The flavors are still representative of Padron to some degree though, so not a terrible cigar, just average.

A great bold smoke with a perfect draw, I mean come on it’s Padron. If you like maduros or Nicaraguan cigars at all, these are worth trying. Like the rest of the thousand series, they age nicely too.

Wow. What a great value Padròn. Construction is on point. No touch-ups required. I got beautiful Padron bold flavors with a few transitions of coffee and slightly bitter dark cocoa. Taste like the “budget” alternative to the 1926 No 35 Maduro. It is not as strong in strength (nicotine) as the 1926 No 35 but I would say the Padron Londres Maduro is a medium plus.
