Padilla Limitado Achilles

We're pleased to bring you another limited edition—the small-batch Padilla Achilles. Made in the factory of Don "Pepin" Garcia in 2006, only 60,000 were produced. Members are no doubt familiar with Don "Pepin," the maker of Tatuaje and other Padilla lines including the Padilla Miami and Padilla 1932. Padilla Achilles is a full-bodied cigar crafted with a café-colored Corojo wrapper and densely packed with Cuban-seed tobaccos from the fertile soils of Nicaragua. This choice, dark brown leaf is smooth as silk and super leathery in appearance. The smoke is characterized by a burst of creamy flavors, followed by more intense cedary flavors. A spicy aftertaste—with just a hint of pepper—mellows halfway through when sweet cedar coats the palate, draw after draw. Try with an oak-heavy XO cognac.
