For 50 years, Padrón Cigars has been known for high quality,
box-pressed and full-bodied cigars. Now, the Padrón family has changed things
up. With the launch of Padrón Damaso, the cigar producer now has a mild to
medium-bodied cigar with a Connecticut seed wrapper from Ecuador and a round
shape. They even create the cigar in a new factory located in the main Padrón
factory complex.
You don’t see cigar makers recreating themselves like this
too often. Cigar Afficiando’s David Savona asked Jorge Padrón why he changed so
much with this cigar, and Padrón responded, “We want to give more people the
chance to try Padrón cigars.” “Hopefully we can get more people to try a Padrón
product - some that may not otherwise have tried one; people that prefer milder
cigars. And we can bring them into the Padrón family little by little.”
Although there are many differences between Padrón Damaso
cigars and other Padrón cigars, the quality is one thing that has not changed.
By “focusing on the quality, focusing on the taste,” Padrón ensured that no
corners were cut in the production of Damaso. He also feels that, “It's not a
mild, mild cigar. It's got some flavor to it. It's not a one-dimensional
product. It does taste like tobacco. It has characteristics that you would
expect from a Padrón.”
