Since we are talking about two "pure" in the literal sense where all the leaves are only one country has decided to give my answer in Spanish.

Both are very good - the AF of the Dominican Republic is rich and has his own, especially about their marketing with the cases but does not compare with a Padron 26 Anni Nicaragua.

ˇDid not even with a 64 in my humble opinion!

He smoked two today and yesterday the two smoked by far the Padron wins by far.

Now, to see if one of my BOTL also replied in Spanish (żPapichulo, Lenguamor - Where to go?

I have never smoked a Padron, but I do have a Boxed Pressed Aniversary I keep passing up in my humi. I have definitely smoked my share of the almighty Fuente sticks, and they are by far my fave cigars.

Fuente for me.

Padrons are good, but the Fuentes are even better.

I'd go Fuente. There are very few that I don't like. I rarely get a bad Padrón, either, but have much more experience with the Fuente line.

There are really no losers in either brand, though.

I don't smoke too many NCs anymore, but I enjoy these two brands above most others. If I had to make a choice, I would choose Fuente.

Although I like the draw more on Fuentes, I'm going to have to go with Padrons because I haven't had a bad one yet.

I started out with Fuente but as of late I'm not much for anything but the Hemingway short story. I have never had a bad Padron. Love 'em anytime I can get 'em. If I could afford it, I'd smoke a Padron everyday





This thread doesn't have a poll?
