Padrón Dámaso No. 8

No. 8 is the slenderest Dámaso cigar, pairing a 46 ring gauge with a five-and-a-half-inch length. It belongs to the standard group alongside No. 12, No. 15 and No. 17. Padrón describes that expression as mild, within a round, handmade collection using an Ecuadorian Connecticut wrapper. The individually numbered integrated guarantee band is part of Dámaso’s presentation. No. 12 offers the closest comparison in the compact standard group: it is half an inch shorter but widens to 50 ring. That pairing gives a reader a clear choice of proportions within the same expression, before exploring the separately designated Red Label cigars.
