Fuente vs. Padron

Fuente for me. Too many great blends when, for me, the Anny line is all I really buy with any regularity from Padron.

I like the Hemingway and Don Carlos blends as much as any cigar from any other blender anywhere.

I look at things like the executive, a giant double corona and just a perfect cigar. The Padron Panatela is as about as good a NC LSP as you will find. The robusto and toro sizes are perfectly blended. The tobacco TASTES better to me, but I am a Nic ho. Fuente has all my respect, but they are just all over the place with blends and wrappers and line extensions. I can't cope. GREAT cigars, but not as good overall as Padron, JIMOO.

And who am I kidding, I haven't had one of either in 8-9 years,
