The "Little Hammer" is the Anniversary 45 year.... that is the one that has gotten the highest accolades and best reviews... can't say I have had it myself, but it is supposed to be a D@MN fine stick.

i bought a box of the 45's back in 2009 and just recently smoked one couple weeks ago, great stick. But IMO the Padro 1926 80th is still a better smoke.

The 85th just hit the streets this week I think. This year the Family reserve is called the 85th in honor of Jose O Padron's 85th Birthday, rather than calling it the 47th Family Reserve. Personally, I think the 45th Maduro is the best Padron cigar I've had. I like the 1926 80th a lot though. I tend to prefer Padron naturals over their maduros, and I think the 80th Natural fits into that.

Has anyone sampled the Padron 85th??

my box should be here soon, I have the 46 FR maddy. I really like that one. I'm looking forward to the 85th. as for the OP, the FR 45 is a bit strong so if you like stronger cigars then go for that, the 26 is milder than the 45th.

I might need a calculator to keep up with all these numbers.
