Padilla Reserve

Padilla cigars are back and these Habano and Maduro wrapped cigars are just the beginning.

Ernesto Padilla is well known for his blending abilities. He's the mind behind some highly rated cigars like: Padilla Series 68, Padilla Miami, Padilla 1932, and a host of others. Well, Ernesto is back at it and he's teamed up with the folks at Oliva to get the job done.

Padilla Reserva Habano at first appears to be a throwback to Ernesto's wildly popular, 90-rated Padilla Habano. It's not, it's better. Made in Esteli, Nicaragua, the Reserva Habano lives up to the lofty expectations set before it. T
he blend will strike you as medium-bodied which is a testament to the all-Nicaraguan fillers on the inside. The fact that Ernesto can take potent Nicaraguan tobaccos and blend them into a smooth, balanced blend goes to show you why this brand has so many 90+ ratings.
