Had a Padron 1964 Family Reserve last night. Wouldn't stay lit, uneven burn, bitter. It had about a year of rest on it. I wonder if these need to be smoked right away? Last few had several months of rest & were sensational. Still have one more left. Now I am thinking that one will suck balls too. This is why I rarely buy $30 cigars
2013 Oliva "G" Robusto with Dr. Brown's Diet Black Cherry.
Cigar is poorly made, wrapper starting to crack and burning like a twig (near halfway done in 10 minutes). Taste is fair. A mediocre bundle quality.
Very disappointing.
later..
2013 Oliva "G" Robusto with Dr. Brown's Diet Black Cherry.
A redux with a much better cigar, improved in every way but the inconsistency between the same cigar, in the same package is striking.
Usually if I have Anniversary Series I smoke them ASAP, the x000 series can be better with a year or two but thats about it. Just my 2 cents.Quote:

From what I hear Padrons do smoke better without any real rest/age on them. There was a post referencing an article that said Padron ages their cigars before the put them on the market.Quote:

2013 Saison (Oliva) Robusto.
Working my way through this new bundle and this is better than the Oliva branded sticks.
Had these today.
