Padron 46

[TheCigarKid]

Is it just me, or is anyone else extremely anxious to try the new Padron 46? After smoking the 45th a few times, and being very pleased with them all, I can't wait to give the new one a shot! It seems to be a 5-1/2" x 54-56 RG, not positive on this yet. September 8th can't come fast enough!

If anyone else has more info on these, please tell us! :blob:

Padrón Family Rolling New Family Reserve

They’ve smoked more than 1,000 test cigars, and now the Padrón family has selected a final blend and shape for its newest Padrón Family Reserve cigar. The Padrón Family Reserve No. 46 will be a dark corona gorda measuring 5 1/2 inches long by 56 ring gauge. The squared off, trunk-pressed smoke is being made with some of the Padrón’s oldest tobaccos and will go on sale on September 8, the 46th anniversary of the founding of the company by José O. Padrón.

Last year’s release, the longer but thinner Padrón Family Reserve No. 45 Maduro (it measures 6 by 52) was Cigar Aficionado’s No. 1 Cigar of 2009.

The price of the No. 46 has yet to be determined, but expect it to be in the neighborhood of $25, the suggested retail price of the No. 45.

Padrón Cigars, which is headquartered in Miami, makes all of its cigars in Estelí, Nicaragua, at its Tabacos Cubanica factory.

I assume it's just a different vitola of the same 44t/45th blend, but I have no idea, having never smoked either.

 

[bdc30]

not sure as I'd be buying them in quantity but I've yet to try a padron ann'y that I didn't like so I'd definitely be interested in a couple

Padron is first on the list of " buy a box without trying" for me. And probably would, if I had that kind of money.

 

[costacoug]

I am excited but I am interested to see how long continue the string. Is there gonna be a 47 a 48 etc. I love the 80/44/45s and hate to admit I will probably have to get a box of these. Anyone here know of any Pre release reviews?

I just want more 44th Natties! That cigar is in my top 3 ever. I can't see improving on the 44th. I'll still try the 46th though!

I still need to try that 44th. As far as the 46th goes, that size doesn't really grab my attention. Im sure it is going to be a great smoke, but a 56 ring doesnt do much for me.

They'll mess around with the blend until they get to 50, then that will be the next anniversary cigar to go with the 80th and the 40th.

Amen to that!

 

[cigarlvr]

that lancero would be awfull good

 

[dpmrpa]

Love them can;'t wait for them to come out

 

[MU Mike]

I'll try it, but the 80th is still the gold standard for me. Neither the 44th or 45th did much for me; the 1964 and 1926 lines are just as good. The 80th however, is infused with crack.
