I saw my local Liquor store has a few boxes of Padron 1926. They looked a little dried out (probably the reason they are selling them half off). HA! I wonder if I could recover the humidity on them if I get some.

    A dry Padron 1926 is still better than a good conditioned anything else...I say go for it! Unless, of course, their regular price is double the online price.

    I'd say that, depending on the price, and if you had the room and time to baby them, it would totally be worth it. Bring 'em up slow and give them at least 6-8 months to recover and they should be fine. If they're unraveling and are all beat up, then nah. But if they're in good shape, then DO IT!

    $20 bucks, so $10 bucks each.

    What size? I'd recommend buying one and smoking it this weekend. If it's not a complete mess, then buy the rest of the inventory!

    Well I picked up two Padron 1964's (sold out of the 1926's) Friday and just tested them out. They are actually not dry at all and a very good smoke. Thinking of going back tomorrow Monday and buying a box.

    I am not sure, I haven't asked. I assume around $200 a box at $10 bucks per cigar.
