"Flavor supasses many more expensive smokes"
This cigar has become one of my favorites and is unequaled in cigars in the same price range. With a medium/full flavor that starts out a bit spicy then quickly turns to rich cocoa and subtle coffee flavor, this is a real winner. I suspect it might be priced the way it is due to the lumpy appearance and sometimes medium vein wrapper. If you don't get too hung up on looks, this Nicaraguan puro might just surprise you. I also find the natural wrapper version to be just as good with a little lighter body as you might expect.

"Excellent"
Absolute proof, awesome cigars are neither large in size, nor triple didgit in box price. My humidor will never be without these. Very rich, and full in flavor, though never biting, or "hot". But, you do want to smoke it slow, if it heats up, the wonderful experience will end.

"Best Buy under $10"
For $2 you can get a Padron Londres. If all the cigars under $10 were sold for $2, i would still take the Londres over them all. This is truly an every day smoke.

"Great every day maduro"
I have really found this to be a great cigar for the price. After a few draws, the taste really settles in and is very satisfying. A few out of my last box were a little hard to draw, but I can live with that for the cost.

"Best gar' for the money"
I loved the fumas as an everyday cigar, but they aren't making them anymore. I tried the londres and I gotta tell ya for a little over 2 bucks a stick you'll be hard pressed to find anything close to these. The consruction is about a 16/20 as they tend to unravell towards the last third of the cigar. The burn I'd give a 15/15 as I only had to ash it 3 times consistantly over three cigars. The draw is a 12/15 could be a little firmer, and the appearance about a 15/25(definately not the prettiest cigar out there,check out the 64 anniversaries) and the taste I would give a 23/25 only because I haven't tried the thousand series yet, and I want to leave margin for what I can only anticipate as perfection. Bottom line: If you're looking for a good tasting flavorful cigar with the sweet maduro taste and the complex favos and pure smoothness of a top notch cigar at an unbelievable price. Look no further. Smokem' if you gottem'

"not bad for the price"
I saw this cigar a the local shop for 2.55 and decided to try it... before lighting it, it smelled like a chocolate bar, but after lighting the first quater of an inch was kinda harsh then it smoothed out with a slight sweetness. It wasn't a bad price and not a bad smoke, but just not a complex as I wanted it to be, it was kinda flat, maybe I need a bigger ring guage to experience more complexity, although LGC maduros are complex even with the smaller ring gauges. Overall not bad for the price, but there are better maduros out there at a reasonable price too.

"One of the very best values in Valuedom"
I buy the Padron Maduro Londres in boxes and also as singles. It is one of my three "go to" gars. Once in a long while I've come upon one that was a tad inconsistant in draw/burn and, I'll admit, some will not pass the "snob" test in the "Looks Dept.", but they always score a "10" in the Taste category and I smoke for taste so, for me, the Londres is a cigar that is top-notch just any day of the year thank you very much. If it were a guitar it would be a Martin 12-string circa 1970.

"FANTASTIC CIGAR"
This is a fantastic cigar. It has a very smooth draw and pleasing aroma, and the price was right. Highly recommeded if you are new to cigars or a seasoned smoker. I'm looking forward to trying some other PADRON oferrings.

"Great cigar"
I've enjoyed every one of these that I've smoked. Full bodied flavor but not harsh.

"Favorite"
I love all of the Padrons and I was lucky enough to get a box of these for $43. Smooth, nutty and just the right size to squeeze into the work day.
