Padron: Dámaso No. 17 Cigars

The first of the Padrón family to arrive in Cuba, Dámaso emigrated from the Canary Islands in the late 1800s. The patriarch rented a small plot of land and began tobacco cultivation, initiating not only the Padrón legacy of quality cigar production but also setting the precedent for the family's commitment to honor and humility — values that still guide and permeate every Padrón cigar.

In honor of Dámaso, Padrón presents the Dámaso cigar. It's the first in their portfolio to feature a Connecticut wrapper, grown in Ecuador and encased with Nicaraguan long-fillers. Offering a mild- to medium-bodied profile, the Dámaso is marked by nuanced flavors of cream, sweetness, cedar, and subtle pepper.
