"Just like the add says"
This cigar smokes just like the add says...The first few hits on this cigar were alittle ruff...The true enjoyment of this cigar,comes at the end...Strong hits of coffee and cocoa...This was my first time trying one of these cigars...good cigar..but i would not pay the price for a box of these...alittle over priced

"Pound for Pound Champ"
Without a doubt, the P3K is the pound for pound champ of the cigar world when you consider the wallet, taste, time and overall smoking experience. Never a bad stick in any Padron batch... From Delicias to the P5Ks that I smoke - never plugged, terrific cocoa coffee taste with hints of wood roasted nuts in the background... plumes of smoke, smooth easy draw... If you've got time and an extra buck or two, the P5K or even the P4K are also terrific.... Suggest Naturals over Maduros on all Padrons, however... imo, Maduro wrapper tends to overpower the binder and filler at times, while the Natural complements perfectly.

"My favorite"
With price considered, the Padron 3000 natural is my all-time favorite #1 go-to smoke. This Nicaraguan puro has strong earth tones along with a long cocoa and coffee finish. If you love the taste of great tobacco, this is your smoke.

"dont be fooled by the apperance,it's a great smoke"
At first glance the cigar looked messy, roll wasnt quite even, but the maduro wrapper had a good oily sheen, draw was great, burn was even. pre light scent reminded me of a horse stall... meaning hickory wood and hay. the taste was of coffee bean and coacoa it was smooth and held 3" of ash before falling off, the construction of the 5000 is much better so if your not concerned with a good looking cigar go for the 3000, or 2000 siries, because the tobacco for the maduros is exclent, rivals cigars cossting 3x the 3 dollar price tag.

"Very good, full-bodied smoke, but inconsistent"
I tried both the natural and maduro--both wrappers were superb, but the tobacco flavor was very inconsistent for both. It was VERY tasty at times, rather harsh at other times. I find Te-Amo to be similar, just slightly milder, and more consistent overall--a better value.

"One of the best."
Fine cigar, one of the best. Well worth the price. Construction, burn quality, and flavor put this smoke in the top three of the under $6 cigars. Highly recommended.

"Excellent flavor, new favorite"
Fantastic flavor. Now I see why the flavor ratings on Padrons are so high. This is as smooth as a mild cigar and yet rich, creamy, earthy flavor with a special distinctive note. Nice aroma to non-smokers. Very easy draw with even burn. It is even better than the Londres and in a dead heat with Cuban Montecristo #4 (which is a lot more expensive and rare.)

"best smoke for the money, best smoke?"
day in day out the padron 3000, as with any padron, is a smoke that is hard to beat...well made with a medium to full taste...enjoy this cigar anytime.

"Smooth and mild but lacks richness"
Last night, went for a walk with my son and my pup. Lit up a 3000 Robusto Natural I got in a sampler pack. Maybe because I'm used to LGC maduros, but while the cigar had plenty of smoke...and smoked smooth as silk all the way to the end...it lacked the richness, flavor, and finish I look for in a cigar. Would recommend to someone looking for a mild cigar. This one's aroma was somewhat vegetal so maybe it just needed some aging. Would rate it an 8 for myself and a 9.5 for someone looking for a mild smoke.
