Cigar lines often celebrate a founder’s birthday or mark a certain number of years in the industry. This is a great practice that highlights these important events and lends a sense of history to the smoke. Padilla 1948 cigars commemorate the publishing year for the first book by Ernesto Padilla’s father, the celebrated Cuban poet, Heberto Padilla.
The 1948 cigar was out of circulation for some time, but now it’s back and even better than before. Would you expect anything less from a brand that prides itself on pursuing perfection?
Padilla 1948 cigars run on a core blend of Nicaraguan Corojo and Criollo long-filler tobaccos. A silky Nicaraguan Corojo wrapper leaf sits on top. Padilla’s Nicaraguan Corojo tobacco is considered the best available today, so the use here in both the filler and wrapper is very exciting. The result is notes of caramel, hay, pepper, and cream.
Padilla 1948 cigars are produced in small batches. This gives the brand the space it needs for amplified quality control and attention to detail that ensures the cigar in your humidor is in line with the best Padilla has to offer.
The Padilla 1948 is perfect for keeping you alert during a fierce card game or powering through those tedious monthly bills.
