The Padrón 1964 Anniversary Series was released in 1994 when the company celebrated 30 years in business. The cigar was made by company founder (and Cuban émigré) José Orlando Padrón and his son Jorge. The idea was to make a high-end cigar from exceptional tobaccos with more age. Before 1994, Padrón’s production was mostly made up of its flagship brown-label brand. It was a good cigar at a good price—and still is—but a creation for an anniversary as big as 30 years had to be taken to the next level. The final product was a cigar of sun-grown, Cuban-seed tobaccos from Nicaragua. It was José’s idea to give the cigars the signature box-pressing. He wanted a smoke that resembled the cigars he used to enjoy in Cuba. “Not that we invented the box-press,” said Jorge Padrón, “but at the time there weren’t any box-pressed cigars in the market.”

Rated 93 on Cigar Aficionado, this box pressed torpedo is “profoundly nutty and cedary with balancing sweetness. Chocolate, honey and leather notes all resound on the finish.” Cigar of the Year winner 2021

Additional information

The Padrón 1964 Anniversary Series Torpedo Natural is a distinguished cigar introduced in 1994 to commemorate Padrón’s 30th anniversary. This box-pressed torpedo measures 6 inches in length with a 52-ring gauge, reflecting the brand’s dedication to quality and tradition.

Crafted entirely from Nicaraguan tobaccos, the cigar features a sun-grown natural wrapper aged for four years, contributing to its smooth and complex flavor profile. The meticulous aging process ensures a refined smoking experience, characteristic of the 1964 Anniversary line.

Upon lighting, the Torpedo Natural greets the palate with a harmonious blend of flavors. Initial notes of cocoa and coffee bean are prominent, accompanied by undertones of sweet spice and caramel. As the cigar progresses, subtle hints of earth and hazelnut emerge, adding depth and complexity to the smoking experience. The finish is smooth and satisfying, leaving a lingering sweetness that invites the smoker to savor each puff.

The construction of this cigar is impeccable, offering an even burn and a comfortable draw throughout the smoking session. The box-pressed shape not only honors the Cuban tradition but also provides an attractive appearance with its sharp edges and uniformity.
