The Padilla 88 Aniversario Toro is a medium bodied cigar that was created to celebrate the 88th birthday of Heberto Padilla, a Cuban poet and political prisoner. He was also the father of Ernesto Padilla the founder and owner of Padilla Cigars. This celebratory stick sports a mouthwatering Ecuadorian maduro wrapper placed over a binder and filler made of Nicaraguan Corojo and Criollo leaves. Once lit, this specially selected blend delivers nutty, woody and peppery notes tempered with hints of cocoa. The Padilla 88 Aniversario is handmade at AJ Fernandez’s Tabacalera Fernandez factory in Nicaragua.
