Padron non - anniversary

Is there a difference between the 2k-7k and the other blends such as the Delicias, Londres, Ambassador and such other than size? Is it the same tobacco blend?

good question. i think they are? they taste like they are, with the exception obviously of the differences in vitola performance...

great question, wish I had an answer lol

Typically blends will change slightly due to the amount of tobacco needed. In a smaller size they may use a touch less ligero to make sure that it burns correctly. That and the ratio of wrapper to binder/filler changes the flavor a bit as well. They try to replicate the blend as closely as possible but it is pretty difficult. I would say they are the same blend, there will just be a slight variance between sizes, then take in consideration the variance year to year in tobacco so you can notice a slight difference in the various sizes

Thank you. I have a bnb groupon that needs to be used by the first week of Dec and would like to get a box of Padrons. I have smoked all the x000 ones and enjoyed them, but would like to get a smaller ring gauge. I was hoping they would be similar.

padron londres or 2000, preferably maduro, when i can, and both overdeliver for their price. also, before anyone asks, padron Ks (and non-K-named Ks like the londres) age fantastically. a year or four is amazing on these sticks.

I think the 000's series are more of a size difference. I agree with Craig Mac. Frankly, I can hardly even tell the difference between a maduro Padron and a natural one either. So I only bought boxes of one wrapper style of each Padron that I have. So if I have a 45yrs maduro, I wont get the natural anymore. But that's just me.
