Padron 1964 Anniversary SI15 Maduro Cigar Review

This special edition 6x60 cigar is produced by Padron for and sold exclusive through SmokeInn.com to commemorate Smoke Inn's 15th anniversary. Personally I can't think of a better way to do it! These are a very limited edition run and I don' mean in the way 99% of other 'limited editions' are. These really do have a very small production and from the time this video originally airs to it's shipping date of April 18th, if you haven't already pre-ordered through Smoke Inn you are likely to miss it. Smoke Inn is doing 4 of these partnered releases this year, the first of which was the Tatuaje Anarchy which in comparison had 4x as many made (and was a FANTASTIC cigar, watch my review of it). These are in appearance the same as any of the 1964 Anniversary cigars with perfect construction. Minimal veins, invisible seams, a dark brown satin wrapper with a bit of tooth, even firm construction and a very slight box press. The aroma is an oily rich tobacco and chocolate with a bit of pepper. First light reveals a medium-full body of rich oily chewy smoke with flavors of very smooth aged tobacco, a little bit of cocoa and a good pepper zing that holds on to the long finish. The first third develops to much the same flavors but yields body down to a solid medium with about the same strength. It's still very smooth and is dominated by the solid black pepper zing that caries through the finish. The burn isn't razor sharp, but I'm not shocked because #1, I've only had it less than a week after shipping (but wanted to get the reviews out before it's too late) and it's a 60rg which are often hard to construct and blend for a perfectly even burn as most Padrons have had. The draw however is typical Padron, perfect with just the right touch of resistance for easy puffing and it's putting out a huge amount of smooth smoke. 35 minutes in, still in the 1st third, flavors open up to a creamy, oily chocolate, coffee cocoa and earth, while the pepper dies down especially on the finish. 1 hour in at the 1/2 way point, strength is up to medium-full while body remains fairly tame for a Padron at medium. The blend is pretty much the same as the 1st third at this point, althought he creamy chocolate has faded replaced by just a general earthiness. The last third brings a big creamy coffee flavor and the earthiness subsides. The finish is lighter although still long, and the strngth is really building up at this point, well surpassing the body. Ending just over 2 hours where it began to get too hot for me, it proved to be a combination of the typical construction and blend of the 1964 series with the lesser body of the lower lines like the 4000. Thank you very much to SmokeInnCigars.com for including CigarObsession in the opportunity to try these rare treats, and congratulations on 15 years of success! Photography by BGPictures.com

  • I was looking up humidors and the different kinds and ways to maintain them and i stumbled across a very interesting piece of information and was wanting your opinion. Using a Potato as a humidifier??? sounds like it will work but im not wasting a good cigar to try it. What do you think

  • Bryan, I'm fairly new to the "Dig a little deeper" realm of the cigar world. I enjoy your Vids very much. One thing. All the hoopla about the 1964 releases?? I know this has to do with the pre embargo but how are the cigar makers using this? I mean, like this Padron 64, is this really made of pre embargo leaf or??? Thanks for all your help in your Vids.

  • @MrHooker53 It is simply the name of the cigar, nothing to do with anything like that.

  • The first number is the length in inches. The second is ring gauge, in 1/64th of an inch in diameter. So 6x64 would 6 inches long and 1 inch in diameter. 5x48 would be 5 inches long and 3/4" in diameter for comparison. The larger ring gauges is a relatively new phenomenon.

  • can maduro cigars make certain people sick? it seems like the last few maduros i smoked they made me feel sick. but the camaroon and connecticut dont. is this due to amount of nicotine?

  • @AmsterDanity thanx for the info

    

  • @Delta8559272

    6" by 60 ring gauge

    6" long

    60 ring gauge. (That is 1 Inch. E.g. 30 ring gauge would be half an Inch.)

  • I your pics I couldn't help but see that Dogfish World wide stout. awesome, awesome beer!

  • what does it mean when you say 6x60? is it in mm or like a special cigar measurement for diameter and then length?
