DESCRIPTION: The Padrón 80th Anniversary cigar, was made to honor the 80th birthday of Jose Orlando Padrón, who founded this prodigious cigar company in 1964. These special cigars are being made in Estelí, Nicaragua, and they are perfectos, the first the company has ever made.

The cigars, which measure 6 3/4 inches long by 54 ring, are finished in box-pressed format and dressed in a Nicaraguan sun-grown wrapper. Each leaf of tobacco used in the Padrón 80th anniversary Perfecto is Nicaraguan grown and has been aged for 5 long years.
The 80th anniversary cigars are part of the Padrón Serie 1926 line. The tobacco used for the 1926 line is the very best tobacco from the Padrón coffers. It’s aged longer than the tobacco in any other Padrón production cigars, and it undergoes a slightly different fermentation process.
