Description
The Padron Family Reserve Natural Sampler puts five Padrón cigars in one box, one of each, all with the Nicaraguan natural wrapper. Padrón started the Family Reserve line in 2008 to honor the family's tobacco legacy, and each number marks a family milestone. The sampler puts the core sizes in one box, one of each. Every cigar is made by the Padrón family in Estelí, Nicaragua.

Blend and Wrappers
Every cigar in the box is a Nicaraguan puro with a sun-grown Nicaraguan natural wrapper over Nicaraguan binder and filler, grown and aged by the Padrón family and rolled at their Tabacos Cubanica factory in Estelí. Every Family Reserve cigar is made from Nicaraguan tobacco aged 10 years, the longest of any regular Padrón line, and each is box-pressed.
Sizes in the Box
The box runs from the compact 5 x 54 No. 50 and 5.25 x 50 No. 85 to the 5.5 x 56 No. 46 and two 6 x 52s, the pointed No. 44 torpedo and the No. 45 toro. All five are box-pressed.
Strength and Flavor
TRP lists the Padron Family Reserve Natural Sampler as full in strength. The natural wrapper keeps the profile toward cocoa, cedar, coffee and roasted nuts, with black pepper and earth underneath.
Flavor notes: Cocoa, cedar, roasted nuts, coffee, leather, black pepper, earth.
Who It's For
The sampler is the simplest way to taste several Padrón sizes without buying full boxes, and it makes an easy gift for any Padrón fan. Smoke them side by side over a few evenings. Coffee pairings: Espresso, medium roast, cappuccino, Cuban coffee, cortado. Spirit pairings: Bourbon, aged rum, Cognac, rye whiskey, añejo tequila. The box is not a humidor, so keep the cigars at 65 to 70 percent humidity if you plan to hold them.
