The Perdomo 20th Anniversary Sun Grown Epicure in 6.00 X 56 radiates the warm, golden character that defines the Anniversary blend's Sun Grown expression. Lift it from the box and the wrapper immediately captures attention—glowing with a cinnamon-hued sheen, rich in oils, and carrying the unmistakable aroma of tobaccos that have rested patiently through years of fermentation and bourbon-barrel finishing. The Epicure vitola, with its generous ring gauge and balanced length, offers a wide-open canvas for Perdomo’s Sun Grown wrapper to show its full personality. This cigar doesn’t whisper; it opens confidently, shaped by Nicaraguan sunlight, volcanic earth, and meticulous double-aging that elevates the natural sweetness and structure of the leaf.

As the flame touches the foot, the cigar introduces itself with a burst of warm spice and glowing cedar, carried on a thick, creamy texture shaped by the 56-ring diameter. The smoke rolls across the palate with confidence—notes of toasted almond, red pepper flake, and honeyed oak rise early, followed by subtle layers of dried apricot, graham, and a mineral edge that adds refinement. The Epicure size allows the blend to feel both expressive and smooth, balancing the Sun Grown wrapper’s intensity with a cool, even burn that steadily deepens the flavors. As the cigar warms, the bourbon-barrel influence surfaces: hints of caramel, vanilla, and charred wood weave into the profile, creating a rich but lifted finish that lingers with glowing satisfaction.

Dominican Don says, “The Epicure takes the Sun Grown’s natural warmth and stretches it into a long, confident stride of flavor.”
Broadleaf Benny adds, “This blend shines here—sweet, spicy, and full of that bourbon-barrel glow Perdomo does better than anyone.”
Toro Tommy notes, “The wide gauge gives the Sun Grown wrapper room to breathe, letting every layer unfold naturally from start to finish.”

The 20th Anniversary line earned Nicaraguan Cigar of the Year in 2014, and the Sun Grown Epicure has become one of its most celebrated interpretations. The vitola’s balance of size and length allows the wrapper, binder, and filler to harmonize beautifully—creating a full-bodied session that’s bright, lively, and deeply flavorful. Smokers who gravitate to nuance wrapped in power—brightness without sharpness—often find this vitola to be the ideal expression of the Sun Grown personality.

Those who love the Epicure’s spirited elegance often explore other Anniversary vitolas to experience contrast and expansion. Many turn to the rich depth of the Perdomo 20th Anniversary Maduro Gordo, while others embrace the precision and sharp flavor definition of the Perdomo 20th Anniversary Maduro Torpedo.
