The Perdomo 20th Anniversary Maduro Torpedo in 6.50 X 54 brings a sculpted, precision-driven expression to the celebrated Anniversary blend. From the moment you hold it, the tapered head hints at purpose—control, focus, and the ability to fine-tune how the smoke arrives. The dark Maduro wrapper, finished through Perdomo’s bourbon-barrel aging process, glistens with natural oils, promising depth even before the flame appears. Beneath it, the Nicaraguan binder and filler—drawn from rich volcanic soils and aged for years—form a core that responds beautifully to the Torpedo’s shape. This vitola doesn’t just showcase the blend; it directs it, allowing the smoker to experience the Maduro profile with structure and refinement.

As the cigar ignites, the narrowing of the cap creates a focused channel of flavor. The opening draws present dark chocolate, spiced molasses, and roasted espresso with a deliberate punch—clean, intense, and sharply outlined. The tapered head not only intensifies the Maduro wrapper’s sweetness but also shapes the airflow, creating a cooler burn that gradually broadens in complexity. Notes of charred oak, black pepper, and a gentle mineral edge emerge as the cigar warms, evolving into a smooth finish layered with cocoa and earth. Unlike the broader Gordo or longer Churchill, the Torpedo offers clarity—a pointillistic approach to the blend—flavors defined with remarkable precision.

Dominican Don observes, “The Torpedo focuses the Maduro richness like a spotlight—clean, bold, and unmistakably direct.”
Broadleaf Benny adds, “The tapered head amplifies the barrel-aged sweetness, making the early draws deeply satisfying.”
Toro Tommy says, “This vitola channels flavor with purpose—each puff feels crafted, shaped, and intentional.”

The 20th Anniversary Maduro series earned Nicaraguan Cigar of the Year in 2014, and the Torpedo format offers one of its most articulate interpretations. By narrowing the head and widening the base, Perdomo created a vitola that compresses complexity at the start and then releases it gradually, almost like a controlled expansion of flavor. The Torpedo feels celebratory not through scale, but through precision—it carries the same depth as the larger sizes but expresses it with sharper definition.

Many smokers who fall in love with the Torpedo’s direction and clarity enjoy exploring the other Anniversary vitolas next. The bold breadth of the Perdomo 20th Anniversary Maduro Gordo offers the fullest, most expansive expression of the blend, while the length of the Perdomo 20th Anniversary Maduro Churchill delivers a slow, evolving journey. Those seeking contrast often reach for the brighter, spicier profile of the Perdomo 20th Anniversary Sun Grown Epicure, discovering a new side of Perdomo’s Anniversary craftsmanship. Each cigar stands on its own, but the Torpedo’s tapered precision makes it uniquely memorable.
