PAM 80th

[Wigwam_Motel]

ok...prefer the natural..

I've only smoked a few Padrons (never a '64 or '26, though) and prefer the naturals I think. The maduro actually seemed to have less flavor to me...maybe the wrapper overpowered the blend or something. I just love the cocoa flavors in the natural wrappers...mmmm!

 

[Soundwave13]

Either are great!

Me, I prefer the Padron maduro's better.

I just wish I could find a 80th. The 40th's are great. I like the natties too.

I also have never smoked an 80, but agree the 40 is to die for and prefer it to the 26 #1.

I love your pictures sir. It is like sayiing here is he end of the cigar...nuff said.:smokingme

I agree Kumar... As I do like them both there is far more complexity in the natural which also makes them age better IMO.

 

[sascha]

maduros for me

Had a 80th a couple of weeks ago, It's a good cigar, IMHO I do not think it's worth the price. I do understand that others have different tastes.

Everything about the natural's just impress me on all levels from the taste to the smells.

Can't find them, I'll see what I can do, I know a few shops local, who have acct's and have a good stock of the 80th, but depending on the shop they run $40 to $60.

I rarely have the chance to enjoy these smokes, since the price point and rarity in fellow smokers humidors.

 

[Soundwave13]

I've seen plenty of them around.. Atlantic, Famous, Holts... all $30/ea.

My shop always carries a box of both the Natural and Maduro, $30.90 + tax if anybody wants some.

I have the maddi 80th, didn't care for it would have rather been smoking a 64 natti. Our shop has both the maddi and natti for 30 a stick.

Damn you Wade, what were we reading it at the same time, you beat me to the punch.

Yep, and I was more accurate, it's $30.90 not $30!

I prefer the Maddie's as well...have had the 40th numerous times but never the 80th. I am usually just as happy with a 64 Mad Exclusivo, so that's what I buy.

Yep, if you could not tell the cigar by the vitola (40th & 80th), unband them, I don't think you could tell the difference. Of course, I've always said the same between the 26 & 64 too.

 

[CWS]

I was not impressed.

 

[BagfullofPings]

I smoked one when it first came out. The cigar looked nice. Both the taste and the smell was great. However, I had to light it four different times and it plugged shortly after the half way point. I was slightly pissed considering I spent $40.

Def. smoother than the 40th, but the 40th had more complexity and rough edge I enjoy, since I smoke many tat's I've came to enjoy that rounded roughness.

 

[dpricenator]

I've been holding onto the one Angry Bill sent me for over a year now. I keep saying I'm going to smoke it, and then get skeered away. Maybe I'll burn it this summer when i have 2 hours.

 

[uncelnino]

Not worth the price IMO, the 40th natural is considerably better for my tastes anyway
