A 50th anniversary is a grand occasion. When a married couple reaches the milestone of 50 years spent together, tradition calls for a gift made of gold. When Padrón Cigars Inc. commemorates 50 years of business.
Individually numbered cigars are very rare. This is only the second time the Padróns have done a cigar in this fashion—the first was the Padrón Millennium. The Cubans did a numbered cigar with the 1492 release—both cigars are extremely prized among collectors.
The new cigars will be showcased at the International Premium Cigar & Pipe Retailers trade show this summer, with the cigars hitting store shelves around the anniversary in September, but the cigars are still being tweaked.
"We have four or five different blends that we're continuing to taste," company president Jorge Padrón told Cigar Insider during a meeting at Padrón headquarters in Miami. He stressed how much attention he and his family pay to the cigar business, and the rarity of new releases bearing the name Padrón.
"We don't like to make new cigars just to make new cigars," he said.
These Padrons will have black serial numbers
