The Perdomo 20th Anniversary Sun Grown Corona Grande in 6.50 X 48 feels like a study in elegance—slimmer than the broader vitolas, yet long enough to showcase the full arc of the Sun Grown blend’s warmth and vibrancy. The wrapper glows with that classic cinnamon-toned sheen, rich with oils developed through extended fermentation and Perdomo’s celebrated bourbon-barrel finishing. In this vitola, the wrapper takes center stage, shaping each draw with clarity and precision. The Corona Grande is crafted for the smoker who enjoys expression without weight, brightness without sharpness, and complexity delivered through a refined, elongated frame.
As the flame touches the foot, the cigar begins with lively confidence. The narrower ring gauge concentrates flavor early, delivering warm cedar, toasted almond, and honeyed spice in a focused stream. Pepper appears on the retrohale—clean, bright, and lingering without aggression. As the cigar progresses, the Sun Grown wrapper unfurls layers of rich sweetness: hints of caramel, graham, dried fruit, and vanilla-laced wood rising with balance and restraint. The second half deepens into notes of charred oak, earth, and cinnamon warmth, all buoyed by the bourbon-barrel aging that gives the blend its signature glow. The finish remains long and articulate, a gentle crescendo of spice and sweetness that leaves the palate warm but never overwhelmed.
Dominican Don says, “The Corona Grande sharpens the Sun Grown profile—pure flavor, clean transitions, and remarkable harmony.”
Broadleaf Benny adds, “This vitola brings out a silkier sweetness from the barrel-aged wrapper, almost dessert-like without being heavy.”
Toro Tommy notes, “If you want expressiveness without bulk, this is it. Long lines of flavor delivered with precision and depth.”
The 20th Anniversary line earned Nicaraguan Cigar of the Year in 2014, and the Sun Grown Corona Grande delivers one of its most refined interpretations. Because of the slimmer frame, the wrapper’s brightness and sweetness stand out more clearly, giving smokers a layered experience that evolves steadily but cleanly. It’s the cigar many reach for when they want the Sun Grown blend at its most articulate—flavor that feels both energetic and elegantly controlled.
Those who love the Corona Grande’s refined profile often explore the broader Anniversary family to compare expression by size. The sunlit warmth expands dramatically in the Perdomo 20th Anniversary Sun Grown Gordo, while the Perdomo 20th Anniversary Sun Grown Epicure offers a rounded, balanced interpretation. For those who enjoy shorter intensity, the Perdomo 20th Anniversary Sun Grown Robusto delivers concentrated warmth in a tighter frame. Across the line, the blend remains unmistakably Perdomo—vibrant, expressive, and shaped by masterful aging.
