The Padrón's explain their rich heritage best: "The Padrón Family understands that making a great cigar requires time and experience. Our patriarch, Damaso Padrón, began cultivating our family’s heritage in the 1800s in Pinar del Río, the richest tobacco region in Cuba. We have devoted over 125 years to perfecting our family legacy. We uphold the respect and pride of our family tradition and our name by delivering only the finest, handmade, complex cigars with the flavor of the Cuban heritage out of which the blend was born."
