"Consistent Quality"
I like variety so I smoke a lot of different cigars. I am always in search of the perfect cigar. Unfortunately, often times I am dissapointed by poor construction, tough draw, and bitter taste even on expensive cigars. Whenever I take a Padron out to smoke, I know it will be the same perfect quality almost every time. Smooth, easy draw. Great complexities of flavor. I smoke them down to the nub every time. I got the last box signed by all of the Padrons (and there are a lot of them) at an event. I told them they have the best cigars on the market and it is true. You can't go wrong with a Padron!

"Superb Everyday Cigar. Smooth and Full"
The first few puffs of the Padron 2000 surprised me with a nice, open draw. Somewhat of an uneven burn with my first stick. Construction is very nice, by the way, as with virtually all Padrons. The first 1/3 was delightful, with thick smoke, and a full, robust coffee and cocoa flavor. I detected a trace of caramel in the aroma. I find myself constantly sniffing at this cigar, enjoying fully the sweet and aromatic aroma. This is a burn your fingers cigar, with a very smooth finish. Not a long-burner, but superb from start to finish.

"#1 Maduro"
I have tried dozens upon dozens of maduros and keep coming back to Padron. Purchased a box after I smoked my first one. Nothing like it!

"Very, very nice"
This is a great cigar, especially for the money. It burned evenly and had a nice draw. The draw was almost too loose, but offered lots of creamy smoke. This is great beginners cigar that would also be appreciated by experienced smokers. A superior cigar.

"MY FIRST PADRON EVER - A BIT OF A LETDOWN"
A couple of days ago in the evening I lit one up, all excited to smoke a part of the tradition... It wasn´t really a looker, but still decent looking stick. Kind of rustic looking with great cold smell. Cold draw was a bit loose as the stick was a bit underfilled, but still not bad. Lighting was easy and the smoke was abundant. But the taste was a great letdown. Sure, nutty and spicy at first, but after half an inch, it changed to papery taste with light spice and tobacco taste that stayed till the end. No complaints in the strenght department. Overall assesment: Maybe was a dud... Will smoke a few more and let you know...

"It's the best"
I've smoked many of these for awhile now and I can't recall a bad one. They smell good and smoke even. Easiest draw you'll find with a great taste and obvious chocolate overtones. Very nice smoke - can't miss.

"MY CIGAR - What Can I Say"
GREAT SMOKE! This and the 3000 are the measure of a cigar for me. The wrappers are thick, oily and stay intact. Go ahead and finger roll. Great cocoa and chocolate taste as advertised and mentioned repeatedly by others. Taste, in as much as complexity, is THE BEST. Draw is so perfect. I've smoked too many to count and every one is just as good as the last... Padron Cigars get Cigar Mag cudos like no other brand. Before I tried'em I wondered what was going on. No wonder, while they may not be the prettiest I give them out without hesitation and know friends are in for a treat!

"Great Everyday Smoke"
This is one of my go-to cigars. Exceptional flavor for the price. Yes, the 1964 and 1926 cigars are better but look at the price difference. Those are for special occasions, like your son managed to graduate. The 2000 has great draw, peppery taste giving way to cedar and cocoa. Have never been disappointed by one yet

"Better than most but?."
The Padron 2000 has a terrific draw, a real tobacco taste, but no surprises. It is a great everyday cigar for the price. The appearance is a dark and luscious wrapper. However, The construction is very inconsistent
unraveling wrappers and cigars that have to be re-lit from time to time are the greatest of problems. Overall this cigar is above average but not in the A-category. If you want the best of Padron, you should definitely go with a 1964 or 1926 series. Dont cut yourself short just to save a few bucks.

"Not really impressed"
This is the 1st Padron I've ever had and I really wasn't that impressed. It's a great looking great smoking and well made cigar, there was just nothing that really stood out to me as far as flavor. It had a very bland taste. I have two more Padron's in my box and I will not hessittae to give them a shot though.
