The golden bear is stalking its prey. Mellow to medium-bodied fans rejoice, this new line extension to the popular Padilla Series 1968 comes draped in an elegant Connecticut wrapper hugging a core of Nicaraguan corojo and criollo long-fillers. Featuring the familiar flavor profile from Series ’68, the addition of a Connecticut wrapper tones the blend down and adds some additional elements of cream and cedar. Available in one size, a beefy 6”x60, this boomstick will provide a relaxing experience any time of day.
This is a great medium smoke. If you enjoy Connecticut wrapped cigars with some EXTRA body to them you will enjoy this smooth offering from Padilla. And the price is very good.

Great Flavor, a little more QC please

This is a delicious cigar. The construction leaves a little to be desired. The cap came apart on 4 of the 5 smokes in this pack mid way through the smoke. The ends looked flawed and should have possibly been seconds. Overall a good, flavorful smoke.

One of my all time favorite cigars. Originally bought them as an every day smoke, but found the taste was fantastic, the burn was good, and have reordered these a few times over the past year. Nothing better than sitting on a deck enjoying one of these!

Golden Bear not what they used to be,
Oct 06, 2017
I bought a box of Golden Bears a year plus ago and they smoked wonderfully. I think they must have had an novice (group?) in there because these are extremely difficult to smoke. The taste is still good, but it is wasted.

Extra mile for a Mild Cigar
Sep 07, 2017
Burns well and semi tasty on the palate. Very tasty for a super mild cigar and a little bit like Five Vegas Gold Mildness. You can tell they put a lot of efforts behind the making of the cigar. Its great for the price.

Very Mild
Aug 29, 2017
If you are use to the heavy hitting and spicy maduros, this stick will seem boring until you realize that you can almost chain smoke them and your head does not spin. The first third has that under aged/green taste. The last two thirds build some flavor. This is a VERY MILD stick and a good occasional break from those precious premiums.

Looking for an hour and a half of relaxation? Want to enjoy a cigar without worrying that it will kick your ash? Rich and smooth, mild but not leaving you wondering if you really smoked a cigar or just breathed air with slightly smoky air? This is a cigar worth trying!

My Favorite Cigar
Sep 22, 2016
I enjoy a mild to medium cigar and this one is perfect for me. It is the smoothest and most flavorful cigar I have had yet. It has a slightly sweet taste with hints of cinnamon. This has become my favorite cigar and can be smoked any time of day. I always add a bundle with every order I place.

I don't like a cigar with the ring size of the Golden Bear Toro. They are rolled very tight and thus are hard to smoke. The flavor is just ok. I won't buy them again.

Since the Padilla Connecticut Double Toro's are no longer available, the Series 1968 Golden Bear Toro is a great replacement. Very smooth and burns evenly to the nub!! My new favorite!
