Padron 1926
Cost: $24. But hey, we were at a new cigar store in Dallas and I wanted to support them. I would seldom pay half this much for a domestic but what they hay, you only live once. The cigar looked great, the guy behind the counter cut it for me when I told him it was the one out of the group that I bought that I was going to smoke. Surprisingly, a bunch of tobacco crumbs were the first thing I encountered upon putting it in my mouth. Not a good start. Then I noticed that the wrapper was torn. Well, I lit it up and gave it a go. I was a little miffed to see it have an uneven burn. The taste was pretty good but then for $24 it should have come with a handjob too. Overall, an ok cigar. But frankly it would be overpriced at 1/3 of what it costs me.
