Does anyone know what they are using on the wrapper to darken the coloring now?

Thanks,

Richard

All it says in Perelman's is Esteli,Nicaragua. I'm sure TG or someone with more knowledge about these will be along soon.

I never concerned myself too much with the coloring. I will blindly go on believing that they wouldn't have the Padilla name on it if it were anything other than natural tobacco coloring methods. By the way, I got a couple in samplers not too long ago and I think they've done something to improve the burn on these. They were always good flavors to me. My complaint was just that they were unfailingly the canoe-ingest cigars I've ever had. Seems they've done something to fix the construction, at least on the 3-4 that I had. Much improved and may be decent value now; I might just have to get a few more.

Agreed for the most part with the burn. I may look into them again if that issue is fixed.

Dave, I always enjoyed the flavor profile of these as well and concur with John in that if they've resolved the other issues and the profile is still the same I'd like a few more too....

As mentioned above when you can smoke em there pretty good.... The first release was a good bargain smoke... I still have a few left... The second was a disaster... With a few days dry boxing I have about a 50% success rate to actually smoke more than half a stick.. Don't think I would buy anymore... I enjoy the original release and every now and then pull out the newer version... But always with a back up smoke! There pretty tasty when then burn anywhere near OK... But................

As stated above....really curious which factory is rolling these things.

I love the Miami, 1932, and Dominus...looking forward to the Studio Tobac collaboration cigar Ernesto is doing later this year, and the box-press cigar he has coming out...but the Obsidian is such an anomaly.
