Perdomo Small Batch Sungrown cigars are the “medium” option for this exclusive and rare line of cigars. While the Connecticut and Maduro versions have their place, this is for people who want to try the ten-year-aged blend with a classic sun-grown wrapper leaf for a traditional flavor profile that’s elevated to a totally new level thanks to the aging process.
Cuban-seed tobacco from Perdomo farms across Nicaragua in regions like Condega, Jalapa, and Estelí is harvested, cured, and prepared for its long nap. The leaf is then aged patiently in deep storage, year after year while being dutifully monitored to ensure that temperature and humidity levels are correct for the long-term development of the tobacco. Once it reaches the tenth year of maturity, the leaf is finally ready for inclusion in the Small Batch blend. It tastes unlike anything else from the fields, with a complex and satisfying character that just can’t be duplicated.
The wrapper on the Perdomo Small Batch Sun Grown cigar also gets special treatment. Instead of long-term aging, this one spends months in a bourbon barrel infusing with the spicy and woody notes of whiskey gone by. This wrapper is then rolled around a special selection of petite leaves that are best suited for use in small format cigars like those of the Small Batch line. Due to all of the exacting demands of this recipe, Small Batch Sungrown cigars are quite limited in production, but what makes it to the market is jealously guarded by fans of the blend.
The smoke is medium-full in strength. Its flavor profile is sweet and spicy, with notes of nougat, nuts, black pepper, and graham cracker. It's a rich puff that pairs well with your go-to bourbon or scotch and would be great after a barbeque lunch.
Perdomo Small Batch Sun Grown cigars offer a truly special smoking experience. It’s not for everyone, but for the ones who get a taste for aged tobacco, this is a must-have smoke for the humidor.
Please enjoy Perdomo Small Batch Sungrown cigars at your leisure.
