Don't avoid Padilla based on this cigar, I've had problems with it too. If you want a really good Padilla, check out the Padilla Habano, or for something stronger, the Signature 1948, Signature 1932 and Miami are all really good. Padilla is a great brand, but they do have a couple of shortfalls, namely the Achilles and Obsidian...both have a great flavor, but the construction is lacking.
I have had one Obsidian and I remember having a hard time keeping it lit and the draw was tight as hell. I just found a cigar puncher that I may pick up. I wonder how it would do with a torpedo though.
