Perdomo Pure Variety 8 Cigar Sampler

Eight cigars. One family. And a Nicaraguan cigar legacy built on the most obsessive approach to tobacco aging in the business. The Perdomo Pure Variety Sampler is a side-by-side tour of what happens when Nick Perdomo’s single-plot Lot 23 terroir, his groundbreaking bourbon barrel-aging technique, and his landmark anniversary blends all share the same box.

The Connecticut side of the sampler opens smooth and approachable. The Champagne Epicure is where Perdomo’s bourbon barrel-aging story began, its butterscotch-colored Ecuadorian wrapper delivering cream, honey, and cedar in the blend Nicholas Perdomo Sr. named after his most prized process. The Lot 23 Connecticut Toro brings the single-plot terroir of Perdomo’s most celebrated farm in its lightest expression, clean and nuanced with creamy Nicaraguan depth. The Habano Bourbon Barrel Aged Connecticut Epicure layers that same bourbon barrel treatment over six years of wrapper aging for a rich, buttery complexity that rewards every draw. And the 20th Anniversary Connecticut Epicure caps it off with eight-year-aged tobaccos and a wider 56-ring gauge that lets every note fully develop.

The maduro half runs the same progression deeper and darker. The Lot 23 Maduro Toro brings five-year-aged Nicaraguan maduro leaf and rich sweetness in a compact, satisfying toro. The Habano Bourbon Barrel Aged Maduro Churchill gives that same process its longest format, fourteen months of additional barrel aging over six years of leaf aging delivering dark cocoa and roasted coffee across a full Churchill burn. The 10th Anniversary Maduro Churchill is the storied original, six-year-aged Cuban-seed Nicaraguan leaf barrel-aged an additional fourteen months in a classic long-format smoke. And the 20th Anniversary Maduro Epicure closes the sampler in style with eight years of aging and a slightly wider ring that makes it the most complex maduro in the Perdomo vault. Pure Nicaragua. Pure Perdomo. Pure variety.
