Perdomo

Lot 23 Maduro

A little bitter with spice and coco.

Med-Heavy strength 1/3 - tight draw. Slightly sour or bitter cocoa. Hinds of burning wood 2/3 - went out 1/2way through. Tight draw. Bit of pepper with hinds of leather. Good cocoa continues. 3/3 - ?? Notes: Definitely eat before this one. If the draw was looser then it's be hellacious. Really dense construction.

Smoooooooooooth. From the first draw, it’s aromatic and enjoyable. It just feels right as a cigar experience and tastes top shelf at a bottom shelf price. This one goes on my must-have list.

Definitely will smoke this again. Great smoke. Started to get hot with 2” left. Didn’t like that. I don’t like a cigar that you can taste hours later. This one is smooth, an enjoyable session for sure.

Appearance is a beautiful wrapper, minimal veins, light roast coffee bean in color. Quite a bit of give to the cigar. Very easy draw with a punch cut.. First third: Lots of smoke. Notes of dark chocolate, hints of cedar, and dark roast coffee. Second third: Even burn to this point. Haven’t had to touch it up once. Ash stack is minimal. Starting to pickup a little sweetness, still dark coffee or espresso, and cocoa. Had to re-light. Final third: Band slid over the end with a little coaxing. Definitely tastes of dark coffee and expresso to the end. Good smoke for the price point. Personally I’d spend $2-3 more dollars for a Habano. Definitely a medium to full bodied stick. I’d avoid smoking on an empty stomach, it may buckle your knees. Overall a pleasant smoke .

Good burn and smoke production.

Great flavor but wrapper started to come undone in final third. Hot towards end

Great Tuesday unwind!

Great Tuesday unwind!

Incredibly good for the price! Similar taste to the Prensado by Alec Bradley.
