The new Padilla by Studio Tobac
Saludos,
Greetings, patrons of Padillas! The new Padilla by Studio Tobac has landed in our humidor today. A limited-batch cigar, we had a chance to sample this cigar in July, and all we have to say about this cigar is, "Wow." Very full-flavored and complex, the cigar is made by Oliva's Studio Tobac department (who creates Nub and Cain) for Ernesto Padilla of Padilla Cigars.
The strength is about medium-strong but the smoke is very clean. If you are a fan of Oliva's Serie V line, this cigar is very similar but with even more flavor. A complex spectrum of coffee, earth, light cream and the right balance of spice are sure to garner a Top 25 ranking. If not then shame on you, CA, because this is one incredible cigar.
We only received a limited amount so hurry into the shop to get yours while you can.
Until the next post, siempre fumando,
Habana Port

*NEW* Casa de Tabaco (featuring the Air Bender Maduro)
In true creative fashion, Litto Gomez has done it again! The much anticipated La Flor Dominicana Casa de Tabaco (featuring Air Bender Maduro) is an amazing handcrafted Casa de Tabaco humidor. That's right. This piece was created to look like a tobacco curing barn, but this also functions as a cigar humidor as well.
The tobacco house comes with 24 Air Bender Maduro cigars measuring 6 1/2 inches by a 54 rg. The humidor has a tray to store a lighter and a cutter and the humidor will accept any humipack-type humidification unit.
The wrapper is a Habano Brasil maduro leaf while the binder and filler are the same as the Air Bender "Natural" (which is all-Dominican). A dominant earth and sweet toastiness proliferate the palate and the cigar burns for about 65 minutes. The strength is about medium to medium-strong.
This is a limited release so be sure to stock up while you can! (See picture above)
We hope to see you here for the event!
Until the next post, siempre fumando,
