About Perdomo 20th Anniversary

Launched in 2012, the 20th Anniversary series uses Cuban‑seed Nicaraguan binder and filler with wrappers that receive extended aging and bourbon‑barrel finishing. Offered in Connecticut, Sun Grown and Maduro, the Connecticut reads creamy with honey and white pepper, the Sun Grown leans oak/cedar with coffee notes, and the Maduro pushes chocolate and espresso. The line favors larger ring gauges and semi box‑pressed formats to emphasize mouthfeel and smoke weight.

Filler

Cuban‑Seed Nicaraguan

This Connecticut wears a rested Ecuadorian Connecticut wrapper over higher‑priming Cuban‑seed Nicaraguan binder and filler. The extra rest and bourbon‑barrel finishing on the wrapper fatten the mouthfeel and add a rounded sweetness, while the Cuban‑seed Nicaraguan core keeps the cigar honest. Flavors open with cream and honey, quickly picking up white pepper and toasted‑bread or sourdough notes on the draw and retrohale; later turns add light earth, cedar and floral lifts. Construction is generally solid — the delicate wrapper is left unpressed to preserve its silk — and the result is a Connecticut‑shade stick that offers softness without surrendering character.

Filler

Cuban-seed Nicaraguan

The 20th Anniversary Maduro is a box‑pressed puro built on Cuban‑seed Nicaraguan leaf throughout, with the Maduro wrapper aged and finished in bourbon barrels to deepen semi‑sweet maduro character. The opening favors dark chocolate and espresso, then broadens into wood, leather and a peppery spice that persists through the mid and final thirds. The larger ring gauges and pressed shapes intensify texture and smoke volume; the cigar trades raw vegetal notes for a rounder, dessert‑side cocoa/espresso core anchored by classic Nicaraguan bite.

The 20th Anniversary Sun Grown uses Cuban‑seed Nicaraguan leaf throughout with the wrapper finishing in bourbon barrels to round the profile. It’s a fuller, wood‑forward offering: oak and cedar form the backbone, coffee and dark chocolate add depth, and a peppery baking‑spice thread keeps momentum through the burn. The larger ring gauges and press amplify smoke production and texture; while construction is mostly solid, a minority of examples have shown uneven burn on occasion. Overall, it’s a smoky, weighty sun‑grown built for flavor heft.
