The Ultimate Pairing: Old Elk Bourbon & Padron Rare Finds

A Collector's Tribute to Craftsmanship
At The Tobacconist of Greenwich, luxury is more than a product—it’s an experience. The Old Elk 10-Year Single Barrel Bourbon — A Hammer & A Dream: Padrón Edition exemplifies that philosophy, created for those who understand that true refinement lies in details. This rare, high-proof bourbon—bottled at 115.6 proof and aged for a full decade—was crafted in homage to the enduring legacy of Padrón cigars, specifically the Padrón Rare Finds “A Hammer & A Dream” releases, available in both Natural and Maduro wrappers.
A Deeply Sensory Journey for the Discerning Palate
This single barrel release invites discovery from the very first nosing. Rich aromas of antique oak, burnt sugar, sun-dried tobacco, and vanilla bean fill the glass—evocative of a walk through a climate-controlled humidor. The first sip unfolds with notes of toffee, espresso crema, and charred oak, met with earthy cocoa and crushed peppercorn that channel the complexity of a finely rolled Padrón Rare Finds Maduro. Mid-palate, a cayenne warmth and creamy malted barley base reveal a sophisticated sweetness.
The finish is enduring and evocative—dry leather, cigar box spice, and cinnamon bark that lingers like the final draw of a Padrón Rare Finds Natural, leaving a satisfying, contemplative warmth. This pairing isn’t simply harmonious—it’s curated for those who recognize greatness in both distillation and rolling rooms.
Perfect Pairing: Padrón Bourbon Meets Padrón Cigars
Pair this bourbon with either the Padrón Rare Finds "A Hammer & A Dream" Maduro for a bold, spicy experience, or the Natural version for a silkier, cedar-toned finish. These cigars are among the rarest offerings in our Padrón Collection, aged to perfection and rolled with vintage Nicaraguan tobaccos.
Whether you're adding to your rare spirits collection or creating the ultimate cigar lounge tasting session, this release is a celebration of two titans of craftsmanship—Padrón and Old Elk. Available exclusively at The Tobacconist of Greenwich, this pairing marks a new standard in cigar and bourbon culture.
