The Perdomo Double Aged 12-Year Vintage Sun Grown Churchill in 7.00 X 56 radiates power paired with refinement—long, commanding, and wrapped in a glowing, cinnamon-hued Sun Grown leaf that carries the unmistakable warmth of bourbon-barrel finishing. From the moment it is lifted from the box, the aroma reveals the story behind the blend: twelve whole years of fermentation, rest, and maturation before the final two-year bourbon-barrel polish that defines the Double Aged series. Beneath the wrapper lies an expertly aged ensemble of Nicaraguan binder and filler tobaccos sourced from Estelí, Condega, and Jalapa, each contributing brightness, sweetness, and depth. The Churchill size stretches those attributes across a long, evolving journey—one that reveals the Sun Grown wrapper’s character with clarity and slow-building energy.

The first few draws introduce the blend with a lively burst of spice—red pepper, cedar, and warm earth rising quickly, balanced by a subtle sweetness that smooths the edges. The 7-inch length keeps the burn cool, allowing the Sun Grown wrapper to unfurl its flavors gracefully as the cigar enters the first third. Notes of honey, toasted almond, sweet oak, and dried fruit emerge, underscored by the bourbon-barrel finishing that adds a faint caramel glow. As the cigar moves into the second third, the blend broadens: richer tones of cinnamon, roasted nuts, and charred wood develop, while the retrohale brings clean pepper and citrus brightness without harshness. The final third deepens into a warm crescendo—molasses, oak, soft spice, and earthy sweetness—delivered with the calm confidence of a long-aged cigar that knows exactly what it wants to be.

Nicaraguan Nick says, “The Churchill gives this Sun Grown wrapper space to stretch, showing off every layer of its warm, spicy personality.”
Broadleaf Benny notes, “Twelve years of aging make the spice smoother and sweeter—never sharp, always glowing.”
Toro Tommy adds, “If you want the Sun Grown blend at full length and full expression, the Churchill is the one that tells the whole story.”

The Double Aged 12-Year Vintage Sun Grown series isn’t tied to a single award year, but it is widely respected for its construction, consistency, and rare aging process. Few cigars undergo such an extended maturation cycle, and even fewer manage to retain this level of vibrancy and structure through it. The Churchill format in particular showcases how long-term aging transforms Sun Grown tobacco—allowing spice, pepper, and sweetness to blend seamlessly without losing strength or clarity.

Many smokers who enjoy the Churchill's extended evolution also explore other vitolas in the Double Aged collection.

And for those who prefer a creamy contrast to Sun Grown spice, the Perdomo Double Aged 12-Year Vintage Connecticut Epicure offers a silky, mellow counterpoint shaped by the same twelve-year aging process. Together, these cigars create a complete journey through Perdomo’s long-aged artistry.
