This line, made in Miami, is what made Padilla the hottest name in the market today. The cigars are made right here in our town, at the Little Havana District, on Eighth Street, which we call, Calle Ocho (8 & 11 is actually the factory address, at the corner of Calle Ocho and 11th Avenue, right next to Ernesto’s La Gloria Cubana factory). If you go there you will think you’re in Cuba. And the cigars Padilla is making there, they are better than Cubans.
Miami 8-11 is a very limited edition, they’re only made in extremely small batches and it’s a bitch getting some. The cigar is really one-of-a-kind. Oozing exotic flavors of butterscotch and nutty roots it makes you feel like you died and came to heaven. The all Nicaraguan tobacco is expertly rolled to deliver solid punch and super-rich aroma. Blended with Piloto Cubano and vintage Corojo ligeros according to the secret formula they will never reveal, every cigar is aged to absolute maturity, evolving to become a succulent, delicious smoke that is rated “The Best” by anybody we dare to ask.
