Perdomo Reserve Champagne Sun Grown Robusto

The Perdomo Reserve Champagne Sun Grown Robusto is a Nicaraguan cigar that delivers a rich, complex smoking experience with a medium to full body. Its Nicaraguan Sun Grown wrapper has been aged for six years, followed by an additional ten months of bourbon barrel-aging, resulting in a flavor profile that is both earthy and subtly sweet, with a touch of spice. The Cuban-seed Nicaraguan tobaccos used in the binder and filler add depth with notes of almonds and oak, accompanied by a spicy undertone. This box-pressed Robusto boasts a firm, well-constructed body with a milk chocolate-hued wrapper that has minimal veining. Before lighting, the cold draw is marked by rich, syrupy flavors of maple, molasses, and caramel, foreshadowing the cigar's full flavor potential. When lit, the cigar produces a creamy smoke with a flavor profile that includes caramel, nuts, and maple, subtly enhanced by cinnamon and red pepper. The retrohale intensifies the maple and nutty aromas, culminating in a finish that is moderately long. As the cigar smokes on, a hint of honey emerges, harmonizing the interplay of sweetness and spice. Throughout, the cigar's construction remains even, with a consistent burn and satisfying draw, solidifying its appeal to cigar connoisseurs.
