Padilla Limitado Edicion Especial Torpedo
I was very much looking forward to smoking this despite my lackluster experience with the Padilla Corojo.
The wrapper was very intriguing. Pitch black in color and veiny, but it smelled and tasted good.
The construction seemed ok until I began to smoke it.
It required multiple burn corrections as one side just would not burn at the same pace as the other.
The taste will hit you like a ton of bricks. Very strong flavors of pepper.
Warning: this cigar is very full flavored, it’s best enjoyed at night with some beer to wash it down.
The poor burn was a real downside, but it’s definitely worth trying!

lol I’m haing a padilla for breakfast with my coffee and it is GREAT! I have not had a prblem with burn yet but I’m only half hour into cigar.the draw is a bit tight, but over all its a geat smoke,loaded with pepper and full flavored ass stated.
Just finished one of these and I really enjoyed it. Lots of different flavors. Mine had some pepper in it but I noticed more of a sweet woody taste. There was some bitter coffee on the aftertaste about midway but it went away. I had a couple of minor burn corrections but nothing that hindered the enjoyment. Medium-full in strength. I would recommend trying this one.
