Padrón 2000 Natural

The Padrón 2000 Natural is a premium handmade Nicaraguan cigar for adult cigar smokers who appreciate rich tobacco flavor, traditional construction, and the unmistakable character of the classic Padrón Series.

Measuring 5 inches with a 50 ring gauge, the Padrón 2000 sits in a classic Robusto format. The compact dimensions make it suitable for a satisfying medium-length smoking session while still allowing enough tobacco volume for the blend to develop properly.

The cigar is a Nicaraguan puro, with Nicaraguan wrapper, binder, and filler tobaccos. Padrón states that its core Series is handmade exclusively with sun-grown tobacco and that the tobacco is aged for at least two-and-a-half years before becoming part of the blend.

The Natural version provides a balanced expression of the Padrón blend, combining earthy Nicaraguan richness with nuts, cocoa, natural sweetness, wood, and spice. Cigar Aficionado has described the Padrón 2000 with notes of hazelnut, almond, cocoa powder, and cherry-like sweetness, rating reviewed examples as high as 92 points.

Why Choose This Cigar?

The Padrón 2000 Natural offers the classic Padrón experience in one of the brand’s most practical formats.

Its 5 x 50 Robusto proportions provide a good balance between smoking time, wrapper influence, and filler complexity. The all-Nicaraguan construction gives the cigar its earthy, nutty, cocoa-rich character, while the Natural wrapper allows the tobacco’s inherent sweetness and spice to remain prominent.

The Padrón 2000 also has a long record of critical recognition. Padrón’s official ratings archive records multiple Cigar Aficionado scores around the 90-point mark, including a 92-point rating in December 2019, while a 2025 Cigar Aficionado review scored it 91 points.

For customers looking for a traditional Nicaraguan Robusto with nuts, cocoa, earth, wood, spice, and natural sweetness, the Padrón 2000 Natural is a strong addition to a regular humidor rotation.

Storage Guidance

Store the cigar in a properly maintained humidor to preserve its wrapper, construction, aroma, and flavor.

Keep it away from direct sunlight, excessive heat, dry air, and strong surrounding odors. If recently transported, allow the cigar to rest under stable humidor conditions before smoking.
