HOMETo commemorate their 60th Anniversary, Padron Cigars has introduced a very special new blend to mark the occasion. As both a challenge to the company’s cigar-making skills and a tribute to its heritage, it has created a Salomon for the first time in nearly 60 years. The old Cuban shape is basically an elongated perfecto that gradually swells before abruptly tapering into a pointed foot. The form is so difficult to craft that only one of Padrón’s numerous rollers has been tasked with making it; consequently, supplies will likely be extremely limited and sporadic. The Salomons are offered in either Maduro or Natural and are made from tobaccos grown on the family’s farms. Though Padrón is secretive about the blend’s makeup, it features tobaccos that have been exquisitely aged for at least 10 years.
