The Padron I was not very fond of was a Bandolero 50 (if I found the matching bands). It was numbered, not sure if this is a lot# or serial number 621306. Not that I absolutely did not like it, it just never seemed to mellow into a smooth, enjoyable smoke. Perhaps my expectation was too high based on what I have heard about Padrons in general???

Scratch that, mismatched the bands, it was not the Bandolero 🤦 , it was a 5" Padron Damaso.

Got Chris's end of the trade, here's the damages

Sosa Torpedo

AB Nica Puro Toro

Monte Media Noche Torpedo

Monte Platinum Series Toro

Cohiba Red Dot Black Robusto

Ave Maria Corona

And a couple of "gone nutty" pop tarts

So... I never had any of these (including the poptarts). Thought about picking up a 5er of a couple of these lines at various times, just never did.

Solid noob smacking, now it's my turn 😆

I agree Palama. Bury them for a few years and the x000's are pretty good.

BGZ, glad they made it and hope you like them! Glad I could sling something that you have not tried yet. As for the Poptarts, I had never seen them either until the morning I was sending your drop. I walked into a local store to get my morning coffee and their they were, so I thought "what the heck its a good adder".

I'll try them eventually. Like I said, I have been curious about a couple of them, just never actually hit the bid button on them.

Poptarts will get munched sooner or later (most likely sooner), threw them in my desk drawer.

I got yours bagged up, going to try to get it out tomorrow.

agree, and I like them with or without aging.

Now all the upper line Padrons, I can't smoke those without a few months to a few years to mellow them!

Hope you enjoy them. That DPG has significant age on it, pushing a decade on it if memory serves me right.

Hopefully a few of them hit your wheelhouse.
