Every leaf is Nicaraguan. Padrón grows all of its tobacco in full sun and ages it a minimum of two and a half years before rolling. Sun-grown means no shade cloth over the plants; the leaf comes out thicker and carries more flavor than shade-grown wrapper. The cigars are rolled by hand at Tabacos Cubanica S.A. in Estelí, where every Padrón is made.

Cigar Aficionado's notes across the sizes run earthy and woody. The 2000 shows cocoa powder, cedar and a burst of black pepper. The 5000 opens with wood and coconut and settles into café au lait, nuts and a light sweetness. The 6000 brings a rich barbecue note with leather, vanilla and almond. Medium to full in body, with the strength sitting under the flavor. Brandon's notes from the counter: cedar, leather, earth and spice.

Choosing Your Size

Londres (5 1/2x42) — The slim one. A 42 ring gauge means a higher wrapper-to-filler ratio and a quicker smoke, about 40 minutes. For a short break or anyone who likes a thin cigar. Singles only at Renegade.

2000 (5x50) — The robusto, and the size most people start with. Cigar Aficionado's note on it: cocoa powder, cedar and a burst of black pepper. 45 to 60 minutes. Grab this one if you have never had a Padrón.

3000 (5 1/2x52) — A half inch longer and a touch thicker than the 2000. Same profile at a slower pace, about an hour. The middle ground when a robusto feels short and a toro feels long.

4000 (6 1/2x54) — The toro and the longest cigar in the lineup. The extra length gives the earth and cedar time to settle in. Plan on 75 to 90 minutes.

5000 (5 1/2x56) — Short and fat. Cigar Aficionado found wood and coconut up front, then café au lait, nuts and a light sweetness. Cooler smoke, about an hour. For the smoker who wants a big ring gauge without a long commitment.

6000 (5 1/2x52 Torpedo) — The pointed head focuses the smoke on the palate. This is the size Cigar Aficionado rated 93 in 2024: barbecue richness, leather, vanilla and almond. About an hour. The most flavor per inch in the line.

7000 (6 1/4x60) — The biggest Thousand Series. A 60 ring gauge burns cooler and slower, with cedar, hardwood, leather and pepper. Plan on 90 minutes. For the lounge, not the parking lot.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the Padron Natural taste like and how strong is it?

Padron Natural smokes medium to full with an earthy, woody core. Cigar Aficionado found cocoa powder, cedar and black pepper in the 2000, café au lait and nuts in the 5000, and barbecue richness with leather, vanilla and almond in the 6000. Brandon's counter notes are cedar, leather, earth and spice. The strength stays under the flavor.

Who makes the Padron Natural and what is the Thousand Series?

Padron Natural is made by Padrón Cigars, the family company José Orlando Padrón founded in Miami in 1964. The Padrón Series is the company's original line; smokers call it the Thousand Series because the sizes are numbered 2000 through 7000. Every Padron Natural is rolled by hand at Tabacos Cubanica S.A. in Estelí, Nicaragua.

What tobacco is in the Padron Natural?

Padron Natural is a Nicaraguan puro: wrapper, binder and filler all come from Nicaragua. Padrón grows every leaf in full sun rather than under shade cloth, which gives a thicker, more flavorful wrapper, and ages the tobacco a minimum of two and a half years before rolling. The natural wrapper is the lighter, less fermented of Padrón's two options.

What sizes of Padron Natural does Renegade Cigars carry and what do they cost?

Padron Natural comes in seven sizes at Renegade: Londres 5 1/2x42 ($10.05), 2000 5x50 ($11.21), 3000 5 1/2x52 ($12.24), 4000 6 1/2x54 ($14.25), 5000 5 1/2x56 ($13.82), 6000 torpedo 5 1/2x52 ($14.68) and 7000 6 1/4x60 ($16.02). Boxes of 26 run $291.46 to $416.52. The Londres is singles only.

Is the Padron Natural a limited edition or regular production?

Padron Natural is regular production and has been since Padrón's early years. Padrón makes the Thousand Series year-round at its Estelí factory, so we keep all seven sizes in the humidor and restock boxes continually. Availability on a given size varies week to week, but nothing in this line is a one-time release.

Is the Padron Natural a good cigar for a beginner?

Padron Natural is one of the first cigars we hand to someone new to Nicaraguan tobacco. The body is medium to full, the strength stays under the flavor, and the construction is consistent box after box. Start with the 2000 robusto at $11.21. If you prefer sweeter notes, the Padron Maduro in the same sizes leans chocolate and coffee.

What is the difference between the Padron Natural and the Padron Maduro?

Padron Natural and Padron Maduro share the same seven sizes and prices at Renegade. The difference is the wrapper leaf. The natural is the lighter leaf and reads cedar, earth and pepper. The maduro is fermented longer and darker, and Cigar Aficionado finds dark chocolate, espresso, caramel and toasted marshmallow in it. Brandon reaches for the Maduro in this series.

Brandon’s Thoughts: There are very few brands as prestigious as Padron and they certainly are not priced under ten dollars. For the money, the Padron Natural or thousand series (as I refer to them) is a fan favorite for Nicaraguan cigar smokers and one of our very best sellers at Renegade. While I typically reach for an anniversary series on special occasions, it is hard to argue with the value proposition of the Padron Natural and the consistency you get for the price. Tasting notes include: cedar, leather, earth, and spice.
