Description: Another great cigar from the team of Ernesto Padilla and Jose Pepin Garcia. The Padilla 1948 is produced in Little Havana, Miami by some of the finest rollers in the world. The production is very limited. Each cigar band is stamped with the batch number that the specific cigar came from. If you are a fan of the Padilla Miami or the Padilla 1932 you owe it to yourself to try this cigar. It is strong with subtle spiciness and is very flavorful without being overpowering.

Pros: Wonderful cigar with butter smoothness
Cons: Very little, this cigar only lack in it's short finish

Pre-Smoke


Scent of Wrapper: Barnyard with a floral sweetness

Scent at Foot: Next to no foot scent, light tobacco

Appearance: Perfect construction w/ straight pigtail cap- toothy -medium brown

Feel: The cigar was medium firm pretty much what you are looking for

Tongue: No tounge flavor

Flavor on Draw: Bubblegum and slightly floral

Smoke


Taste: This cigar had a elegant flavor w/ a creamed coffee flavor.
Hints of wood and very little of the floral notes I picked up in pre-light.
This cigar is very much like a Padron Anniversary.

Strength: This cigar is straight up medium bodied.

Burn/Ash:
The burn of this cigar was flawless and the ash was very tight for a lancero.

Scent of Smoke: Fairly light

Heat on Fingers and Mouth: I never got any heat from this cigar.

Draw:The draw was very nice, it produced tons of smoke every time I drew on it. I'd read reviews elsewhere that mentioned tight draw but this cigar drew flawlessly.

Finish: The finish of this cigar was very light w/ good spice.

Other Aspects of this Cigar: This is one of the better medium bodied cigars being produced. If it wasn't for the price this would be one of my everyday smokes.

I will give this cigar a 9 on the ICRS system.
