So my vote goes DPG

This was a great cigar. The new blend is good, but it is just not the same.

I would need to expand the number of Padillas I have smoked to really make an educated decision, but right now it is DPG if you gave me the choice.

kugie · 03-10-2010, 06:46 AM

I would have to go with DPG although i like the Miami Most The JJ White and the Maddie are two of My Favorites

Swimming against the current!!!

Padilla!!!

CigarDisciple · 03-10-2010, 02:55 PM

Don Pepin Garcia all the way. I have had many good Padilla cigars but can't hold a candle to DPG. IMHO.

BryanB · 03-10-2010, 04:08 PM

I like both but I lean towards DPG.

kelmac07 · 03-10-2010, 08:24 AM

DPG for certain!!

wayner123 · 03-10-2010, 09:25 AM

I prefer a Padilla made by DPG. The 1932's were some of the best cigars I have had.

03-10-2010, 09:28 AM

I like Padilla ok, but, I will always go for a DPG over a Padi.

maninblack · 03-10-2010, 12:59 PM

DPG of course. Padilla's are tasty though.

sikk50 · 03-10-2010, 01:19 PM

Padilla for me. I've really been turned off by most of the DPG's I've had. Sorry guys

Smokin Gator · 03-10-2010, 07:34 PM

There are several Padillas that I like, but several DPGs that I love!!

Without a doubt, Pepin. I really want to like the Padillas but for some reason the few of his new blends I've smoked just don't do it for me. The Obsidians are good after 6 months rest, at least the first half is. The last half gets pitched.

03-11-2010, 11:52 AM

DPG but I love the Padilla 1932s

Bubba - NJ · 03-11-2010, 03:54 PM

I have never smoked any Pepin and immediately lit another right after the first . Have done this with the Padilla Habanos Toro several times now . One of my new favorite NC's now .

kenstogie · 03-11-2010, 08:30 PM

Amoung these 2 it'd be DPG but if it were AJ Fernandez and DPG it would be a tough call for me.

brigey57 · 03-11-2010, 08:40 PM

As I said I would tell you all my preference but after I herd from the BOTL. Well my vote is in and it is DPG but I still love my Padillas now and again.

Thanks for your vote and advice!

Dunkel · 03-11-2010, 08:52 PM

I have only smoked 2 Padillas. 1 was a Padilla Miami old blend by DPG, and the other was a '68. The Miami was very good, the '68 was blah. I've smoked several DPG's and I enjoyed most of them. I voted DPG although I am no DPG fanboy.
