Padron, Natural or Maduro?

[UPHOTO]

Most manufacturers have a HUGE difference in the taste and look of their natural and maduro variations but for some reason I just don't pick up on that big of one with the Padron line.

Is it just me?

What do you guys prefer when it comes to the #000 series or the anniversary?

I've never tried a 64 or 26 natural yet.

[MithShrike]

I agree, the flavor difference is minimal. I do prefer the natural in the Anniversary lines and the maduro in the classic lines.

[tsolomon]

I smoke both the natural and maduro in the #000 line, it really depends on what I'm craving at the moment. With the 64, I like the Maduro over the natural, but they are both good smokes. :D

1926----Natural

[gnukfu]

I like both of em....course I like all Padrons.

[groogs]

I like the Maduro more than the natural in the 000 series. Same goes for the 64 and 26's.

[chippewastud79]

Only like the Anniversary Series, prefer the natural of those :tu

[dannyboy]

I love any Padron, natural or maduro. That said, I prefer the maduro in all of the lines, but that's just me. I would never turn down anything made by Padron:ss

[php007]

I like the maduro for the almost all Padrons including the x000.

:tpd::tpd: Me too!

[Aladdin Sane]

I like em both but lean towards the maduro especially for the Annys.

I have had some 3000 nat and maddies and found it hard to tell the diff between the 2 until lighting up.

[barbourjay]

i believe they work the tobacco so hard that the differences are not very ****ounced. i'll see if i can find the interview i read when the 80ths came out.

honestly i still lean to the natural side.

[Blueface]

On the Anni line, I like both but do prefer the maduro.

Try buying a box of the '000 series and putting them down for a couple of years. You'll be converted in no time :ss

[a.dickens]

I am a huge fan of the 2000/3000 maduros. Those are some of the best cigars I have ever had. THE best smokes for the money, in my humble amateur opinion.

[BC-Axeman]

YES
(both)

[mugwump]

Once they've been tossed in the humi I have a real hard time telling them apart. I tend to buy the maduros but I agree that they don't really have a classic maduro taste to them. They're all good in my book.

[Darrell]

It's all about PAM's with me, no PAN's. :ss

[gettysburgfreak]

I like both of em....course I like all Padrons.

I agree, but if I had to choose I would go with the maduro.

[ucla695]

I like them both and prefer the Annivesary lines to the x000s.

[BamBam]

I've been partial to there Maddy's

[Celt]

1 vote for the Maduro!!!

[jjirons69]

Maddies all the way!

[rockyr]

Maddies all the way!

Yep!

[cort]

Maduro:ss But I am a maduro whore

[kgraybill]

I prefer Maduro in the Xooo, but as for the anni's I like the 64 principe in nat and all other 64's and 26's in maduro.

The Principe being smaller RG seems to be perfect in natural.

[SteveA]

In the anniversary line both are great but I prefer the PANs. In the X000s it's maduro all the way.

[Starscream]

I like the Maduro more than the natural in the 000 series. Same goes for the 64 and 26's.

:tpd:

Although every Padron I've tried has been excellent. I won't turn one down regardless of what type it is.

[MarkinAZ]

X000 series in la natural:cool2:

[kfish]

I prefer the maddies but I definitely wouldn’t turn down a natural.:D

[tnip23]

prefer the maddies in both

[Tombstone]

Maduro

[Coz77]

Both...depends on my mood at the moment.

[BigAl_SC]

To me its either. The x000 is a nice reasonably priced stick that is consistantly good.

[rizzle]

Ya know, I can't say that I prefer one over the other. Kind of strange because with most other cigars I can tell you without hesitation that I prefer one over the other.

[zemekone]

back when i use to smoke them on a regular:
maduro for the 1000 series
natural for the 1926 anny series
maduro for the 1964 anny series

[Waynegro1]

I like the maduro for the almost all Padrons including the x000.

:tpd:
