The Padilla Corojo 99 Cigar Shatters Expectations

Leave a comment

Padilla Corojo 99 bannerA cigar with a low price tag doesn’t necessarily mean low quality. This is a message that Ernesto Padilla has been sending to cigar enthusiasts for years. Year after year, Padilla manages to produces cigars with quality construction that fit into any budget. The Padilla Corojo 99 repeated this message at the 2015 IPCPR, where it was showcased with the Padilla Criollo and the Padilla San Andres. All of the cigars shatter your expectations of a budget cigar.

One of the things that makes the Padilla Corojo 99 cigar so special is the way it’s made. Produced at the Honduran Raices Cubanas factory, the Corojo 99 cigar is handmade by the best. The Raices factory has put out some incredible cigars, including the Alec Bradley Tempus. The Corojo is made with the traditional entubado method from Cuba, and is triple capped.

The cigar is made, not surprisingly, with a Corojo 1999 wrapper. It’s filled with Aganorsa Nicaraguan long-fillers, giving it plenty of flavor. The cigar has notes of cedar, leather, and more. Medium to full-bodied, the cigar has a lot to offer.

With a low price tag, this cigar is a great option for an everyday smoke. Cuenca Cigars is the place to buy your cigars for the best online prices.

Padilla Cigars Go Big At The 2015 IPCPR

Leave a comment

Padilla La Pilar BannerThe 2015 IPCPR was a big trade show for Ernesto Padilla. In addition to launching Padilla Corojo and Padilla San Andres, Padilla debuted the La Pilar cigar. Ernesto Padilla’s boutique cigar company has put out some real gems in the past, and Padilla La Pilar is no exception. The cigar is highly rated, and this is for good reason.

One of the exciting things about the La Pilar is where it’s made. Remember the Padilla Series ’68? That fantastic cigar was made at the Tabacalera Aguilar in Honduras. La Pilar is made at the same factory. The blend features Nicaraguan long-leaf filler tobacco from Esteli and Jalapa and some Dominican fillers as well. The binder is Nicaraguan, and the whole blend is enveloped in an Ecuador Habano Oscuro wrapper.

The resulting cigar is medium-bodied. The draw, aroma, and balance is all spot-on. Even the price is spot-on! The cigar comes in boxes of 20 and you can choose from three different sizes. When you shop with Cuenca Cigars, you can get your cigars for the best online prices at Padilla La Pilar Cigars.
