Padrón Family Reserve No. 95 Natural

Padrón Family Reserve No. 95 Natural is a 4 3/4 x 60 round Nicaraguan robusto gordo created to honor what would have been José Orlando Padrón’s 95th birthday, using select Nicaraguan tobaccos aged around ten years. Unlike earlier box pressed Family Reserve releases, the No. 95 is the first in the series to be produced in a round format, wearing a warm light brown Nicaraguan sun grown natural wrapper over matching Nicaraguan binder and filler for a medium strength, medium bodied profile. Flavors focus on natural tobacco, dusty earth, cedar, and mixed pepper (red, black, and white), with additional woodsy and coffee nuances and a peppery finish that grows spicier and more cedar driven in the second half.

Built from some of Padrón’s oldest tobaccos, the No. 95 Natural was originally offered as a PCA trade show exclusive in 10 count boxes priced at about 29.50 USD per cigar, reinforcing its status as a limited, commemorative release. Reviewers describe a profile that starts balanced but becomes more cedar and pepper focused later on, making this cigar best suited to aficionados who enjoy a medium bodied, spice forward Padrón with prominent natural tobacco, earth, cedar, and pepper rather than heavy sweetness.
