The Perdomo 20th Anniversary Connecticut Epicure is a beautifully balanced, long-format celebration of Perdomo’s creamy, barrel-aged Connecticut craftsmanship. Handcrafted in Nicaragua, this refined 6.00 × 54 cigar features an Ecuadorian Connecticut wrapper that undergoes extended fermentation followed by bourbon-barrel aging, adding warmth, sweetness, and enhanced smoothness. A Nicaraguan binder and long-aged Nicaraguan fillers complete the blend, shaping a mild-to-medium profile that blossoms gradually across the Epicure’s extended length and generous ring gauge. The result is a Connecticut experience defined by silky texture, natural sweetness, and elegant depth.

From the first draw, the Epicure delivers soft waves of cream, honey, and toasted almond. As the wrapper warms, the bourbon-barrel influence introduces accents of oak, vanilla, and a touch of white pepper, creating a warm, inviting sweetness. Midway through, the Epicure expands into flavors of sweet hay, light caramel, and gentle floral tones, supported by a cool, smooth burn. The finish is clean, buttery, and soothing — a classic Connecticut profile elevated by time, aging, and Perdomo’s meticulous barrel-conditioning.

Connecticut Connie: “The Epicure is silky comfort from start to finish — creamy, sweet, and effortlessly smooth.”
Vintage Vinny: “The barrel aging shows in the warm, honeyed undertones. A beautifully mature Connecticut.”
Dominican Don: “Extended length, refined balance, flawless execution. A perfect Connecticut journey.”
