Damaso No.17

The Damaso line of cigars are for those who seek the quality and consistency of Padron in a milder taste profile.

This cigar was named in honor of Jose O. Padron’s grandfather Damaso, who was the first Padron to arrive in Cuba from the Canary Islands sometime in the late 1800’s. “Islenos”, or Canary Islanders, were serious people who kept their word and tended to work in farming. In this tradition, Damaso rented a small piece of land in Pinar del Rio and started growing tobacco, giving the Padron family their beginnings in the tobacco industry.

A hearty core of earth and oak with notes of almond, pecan, and a light spice.
