Fuente vs. Padron
 
I thought of an interesting question, today, while smoking a 3yr. old Fuente Double Chat SG. One of my first good sticks, BTW. If you could "Only" smoke one, which would it be, Fuente or Padron? I'll vote Padron, since I currently favor the variety of flavors and characteristics of that particular line. If someone could help me set up a formal poll with Graphs, etc., I would greatly appreciate it!

It will be interesting to see the results from all the Inmates!

Thanks!:tu

SO far I'd second Padron although I smoked my first Anejo last week and it was excellent.

Padron without a doubt.

As of right now since I haven't tried many Fuente's, I choose Padron. They have great cigars at every price level.

Padron








But then again I am a Padron whore.

These happen to be my two favorites in my short cigar smoking time so this is very tough. I think in the end I would vote for Fuente though due to the consistency I have found in them...I love me some short stories. However, I am also biased I think because I have tried some of the higher end Fuentes (Opus X) and not the higher end Padron. Perhaps, if I had a super premium Padron I would change my mind. I really have only smoked the *000 series Padrons!

Padron without a doubt - I love the entire line.

I enjoy Fuente's Flor Fina, Anejo, Don Carlos and the X...I don't enjoy Hemingways as much any more and the Sun Grown I don't like...can't remember what I else I have smoked from Fuente.

Wow....Padron smoking Fuente at this point!

Fuente no questions asked... While I do enjoy some padrons, I find them to be too expensive for what I get... and some Fuentes are over priced, but I just steer clear of them (GOF comes to mind).

I haven't smoked a Padron in almost a year if that helps... while my last Fuente was probably less than two weeks ago. :tu

Yes you have to use the special characters on your computer or the hotkey is 0243 while holding ALT!

Speaking of price I picked up a DC Fuente and for sixty cents less a Padrón 1964 Monarch. So for me :wo

I have never smoked a Padron, but I do have a Boxed Pressed Aniversary I keep passing up in my humi. I have definitely smoked my share of the almighty Fuente sticks, and they are by far my fave cigars.
