The Padron Series Cortico Maduro is a full-strength short panatela that is handmade in Nicaragua. It is right sized for when you want a quick smoke that packs a punch. This Nicaraguan puro features a dark, oily, sun-grown maduro wrapper that has been aged for two-and-one-half years. The Padron Series Maduro has a natural tobacco sweetness that is accented with not so subtle notes of spice and pepper.
