Padron 1964 Exclusivo Natural

The Padron 1964 Exclusivo in natural was box pressed and sightly rough in appearance. It featured an open draw and an even burn throughout. Medium to full body and medium in strength. Notes of coffee, cinnamon, cedar, and black pepper. Not complex but very tasty. Was expecting more complexity for the price tag but overall a good cigar. Recommend.

Oliva Serie V 135th Anniversary Edicion Limitada

The Oliva Serie V 135th Anniversary Edicion Limitada was a very attractive perfecto shape cigar with a perfect draw and burn throughout the entire smoking experience. The cigar was medium to full in body with medium strength. The flavors consisted of cedar, baking spices, black pepper, dark chocolate, and light coffee. The cigar had everything the regular V line has, but the flavors were richer and maybe a touch smoother. Highly recommend!
