    Mr. Gomez is a prominent Nicaraguan businessman as well as a true cigar aficionado who only enjoy smoking Padron special release cigars. He only loves Padron 1926 line. He loves it so much that Padron created a Churchill size of 1926 80th Anniversary cigar which I collected one in the past. However, I didn’t know that Padron also created a special band only for him. I was not aware that Padron created a cigar just for an individual with special label dedicated to an individual until now. These cigars are only for personal consumption not for sell. I was informed that actually these are not the regular 1926 80th blend. These cigars are created with the oldest tobacco from Padron’s private collection. Most probably these are the only pictures available in any on-line site. These cigars are the rarest and top quality personalized Padron cigars that money can’t buy. I am very proud to add them to my collection. photo image_zpsd4856b92.jpg photo image_zpsac7fe16e.jpg photo image_zpsc7a68e53.jpg

    Here's the question...Do you even burn those? I mean those are once in a lifetime things right there. I would have to imagine children's wedding or grandchildren births maybe but damn. Congrats Rip!

    Those are two fantastic looking cigars. The tooth on that close up is simlly amazing. Thanks for sharing Rip. You are certainly a much appreciated brother on the forum.

    I haven't burn any of them yet but I will. What is the point having them if I don't smoke. However, I do agree it is not easy to burn and let them go forever.

    i hear ya Rip. it's like that fine bottle of wine when you know there is a great possibility you may never have it again. The connossuier in most of us I think would say I will just have to find another unicorn, if you will. Still hard to pull the trigger though.

    Wow, serious congrats on picking these up. What I would give for just 24 hours to be in your shoes. You sir are living the dream and doing it well. Well done sir, well done.
  • rzamanrzaman Everyone, Registered Users Posts: 2,604
    Thanks James...appreciate your kind words. I have to admit that these were accidental discovery/collection. I wish I could share the story. Protect the anonymity is a key to collect rare items.

    My friend from Davidoff just gifted me these two aged Avo Limited Edition cigars. I am so excited since I have never smoked them. Avo Limited Edition 2005 and Avo 80th Limited Edition 2006. photo image_zps7a97690b.jpg

    You know the old saying...."It ain't easy being this good, Rip" Another great find my friend. I have a feeling a few of the AVO fan boys in this group may short circuit their keyboards from drool. HA!

    Thanks Bombay. Lately I have been being lucky. I also received two Nicaraguan political cigars- FSLN. These cigars have been rolled only for the political leaders of the ruling Nicaraguan Government party and also as part of State gift. I will post them later.

    It's rough smoking cigars that are rare and once you do they are gone. But on the plus side at least you have a couple....

    yesterday when AJ came to my house gifted me these cigars. A box of his latest MAYIBLE. He also gifted me three special cigars blended for the European market and two Maduro Vegas AAA cigars. These are very special to me from a special friend. photo image_zpsc52706fe.jpg photo 48a32af7-914c-4fd5-b0cc-f114f2f97439_zpsda130929.jpg photo image_zpsddc1f626.jpg
