Short answer: the Padrón 1926 Serie is full-bodied: box-pressed, built from Nicaraguan tobacco aged five years, and released for José O. Padrón's 75th birthday. See stock on our 1926 Serie page.
What makes the 1926 different
Five years of aging instead of the 1964's four, and a blend pushed further toward strength. Expect dark chocolate, espresso, earth and leather, with the smoothness aging buys.
The sizes we stock
- No. 9 — the robusto, and a natural place to start.

Natural or Maduro
Same blend underneath. Natural brings white pepper, coffee and cedar; Maduro is darker, with chocolate, espresso and leather.
1926 or 1964?
The 1964 is medium to full and the easier everyday smoke. The 1926 is full-bodied and more intense. Both are box-pressed and both carry an individually numbered band.

Frequently asked questions
How long is the tobacco aged?
Five years, per Padrón.
Why the numbered band?
Padrón uses an individually numbered band on the 1964, 1926 and Family Reserve lines to guard against counterfeits.
Is the 1926 worth the step up?
If you already like the 1964 and want more depth, yes. If you are new to Padrón, start with the 1964 Exclusivo.
