The Quality of a Padron Cigar
Just like a fine wine, there is an extensive process in creating a fine cigar. The process involves more than just growing, processing the tobacco and marketing the cigar. Involved in the process is the quality of tobacco used, where it is grown, the aging process, the flavors blended together, and the commitment of the cigar company. One such cigar company that has established a reputation for uncompromising attention to the process of creating a fine cigar is the Padron Cigar Company. The origins of the Padron Cigar Company are deeply rooted in Miami Florida. Established in 1964, Jos O. Padron followed meticulously the Cuban art of providing cigars. The Padron Cigar Company is a family owned business and as such the pride of producing a quality cigar is a major factor that contributes to the production of a product that carries the family name.
The objective of the Padron Cigar Company is not to produce the most cigars, but the finest cigars. They adhere to this commitment by staying true to the process and limiting the production of cigars. The limitation of the number of cigars manufactured is in direct proportion to the quality of the tobacco that is available to produce the Padron cigar and to maintain the integrity of the full process in producing these fine cigars.
The Padron Cigar
The Padron cigar is grown from the finest seeds of Cuban tobacco. The actual tobacco fields are located in Nicaragua and the creation of the cigars takes place in Nicaragua and Honduras. The cigars produced range from cigars that are classified as moderate to full flavor cigars. The Padron cigar is available in two wrappers. Those two wrappers are the maduro and the natural wrapper. The maduro wrapper, when burned, will exude an aroma that can be likened to an espresso coffee. The natural wrapper has a hint of spices. The wrapper is the exterior portion of the cigar. Wrappers reflect the quality of the cigar and the better the wrapper, the more expensive the cigar.
There are three major purposes of the wrapper. The first purpose is to offer flavor. The second purpose speaks to the burning of the cigar. A quality wrapper will provide steady burning of the cigar which is critical for the full enjoyment of the product. The final purpose of the wrapper is the look that it lends to the cigar. A fine wrapper will not only make the cigar feel good to the touch of the cigar lover, but will give the appearance of a finely crafted cigar. Today, the Padron Cigar Company maintains its headquartering presence in Miami. The Padron Cigar is appreciated for its mixtures of tobacco, the unwavering taste and affordability.
