Thread: Finally got a lead on Padron cigars in my area...

Not sure what you guys ship: cigars or white powder but I never had problems sending and receiving a box or two (especially non Cubans) from and to anywhere. A birthday card "seals the deal".

non Cubans and Cubans are just the same here, i heard stories of customs cutting open cigars to check for drugs... In the Netherlands they just confiscate and destroy all tobacco coming in except if you declare them before they arrive...

birthday card is a good idea though, thanks

Whether you send or receive, the package should always say that's it's tobacco. Declare a value you want (ask the same to the sender), pay some tax (usually proportionate to package value). It's safe and headache free.

Great Succes!



Really looking forward to these! Only box they had... The owner of the shop in the Netherlands told me that they were talking to Padron to become an official importer/distributer, so if i like these there will be plenty more where these came from

that box has traveled quite a distance lol Glad you were able to get a hold of some!

and they're excellent! apparently the guys from the Netherlands are looking into becoming an official importer/distributer for Padron Cigars. Their service is excellent, so i really hope that it works out so i can get some more from them (and different series as well...)

update: apparently the shop is doing good business with Padron, since i was able to pick this one up today

Excellent cigar, my 2nd favorite Padron.

I really enjoy the Padron 2000 and the Padron 2000 Maduro I would recommend those!

I smoke the 3000's occasionally. They are OK. They are definitely just a couple dollar cigar, nothing special. That being said, I wouldn't toss one away! FWIW, they are a decent stick for the price IMHO. Too be honest, I am not a huge fan of the 1964/1926's. I know I am the minority here, but I just don't like real peppery cigars. I appreciate them for what they are, they just aren't my cup of tea!
