Information has been trickling through about the re-release of the Perdomo Grand Cru. The 2004 crop was released 2 years ago and sold like hot cakes! However, with the depletion of the 2004 tobacco and Nick Perdomo (in his wisdom) wanting to keep the brand, but improve the blend, has re-made the cigar with the [...]
Well, there has been a lot of secrecy around this new stick. Nick Perdomo has had it under wraps for quite sometime now and the release is imminent. When I was at the Perdomo Cigars HQ in Miami earlier this year, I was afforded a special “sneak Peak” at the packaging of the new line, [...]
Earlier this year, when I was at Perdomo HQ in miami, the team advised that the Perdomo Grand Cru was going through a “face lift”. Although it was already a great stick and loved by many cigar aficionados, Nick thought he could make it even better. So, what’s changed? – The blend is going through [...]
Here at the Perdomo Lounge we are often asked “what makes a good cigar”? Many customers who come here the first time have only smoked second-rate cigars in the past and when they try their first Perdomo, they are impressed at the difference. So what makes the best cigars better than the rest? Of course, [...]
Peter from “A Cigar Smoker’s Journal” has written a very positive review of the Perdomo Exhibición Sun Grown. Here are some highlights: “The band for this cigar is simply beautiful….” “The cold draw tastes of butter, hay, earthy, and a slight bitterness….” “Between draws I’m left with a creamy flavor on the palate mixed with [...]
I just read this interesting article from 2009 about the anti-smoking lobby. It’s worth a read if you want a different perspective on where all of the anti-smoking hysteria is coming from. The article references the book “Hyping Health Risks: Environmental Hazards in Daily Life and the Science of Epidemiology” by epidemiologist Geoffrey C. Kabat which [...]
A big thanks to Mark from Aussie Cigars who posted this review of the Perdomo Habano Maduro!
Jon at The Aspiring Gentleman has written a very complimentary review of the Perdomo Champagne Noir. He starts off by complimenting the appearance: “The cigar is wrapped in a dark, almost black, maduro leaf. The wrapper is so dark that I can barely see the small veins in the leaf. There’s an oily sheen that’s [...]
A great new review of the Perdomo Habano Gordo: The cigar is wonderful to look at, a light sheen lets it almost glow. This Nicaraguan puro is well constructed, firm in the hand with a great cedar-y smell in the pre-light. I paired it with an 11 year old Balblair Highland single malt that my [...]
Check out some of the latest Perdomo Cigars pics from customers around the world! It’s great to see so many people around the world enjoying their Perdomo Cigars! Here’s a few snippets we’ve seen from around the web lately!
I’ve really become a fan of pairing the ESV Sun Grown with a peaty single malt…. a Laphroaig or a Caol Ila or a Talisker. It really seems to compliment them quite well. Order yours today!
The nice folks at The Cigar Report have excellent things to say about the Perdomo Lot 23 Toro Maduro: I believe Nick Perdomo has outdone himself with the Lot 23. The tobacco in this stick is specially grown in Nicaragua on a field called Lot 23…thus the name. This field was cultivated in 2000 and [...]
Perdomo Cigar Lounge regular Corey Wilson (@coreywilson76) dropped by the lounge last week and we asked him to do a quick video review of the new Perdomo ESV 2002 Robusto Maduro.
Samuel Spurr from Inlumino Cigar News Australia has posted a new review of the Perdomo Exhibicion Toro Grande Sun Grown. “… a subtle, easy-going smoke best suited to mid-morning… The first third begins with light spice and creaminess…. The second third gives an extra hint of spice and black pepper, although a subtle burnt toast and light hay [...]
Another great review of the brand new Perdomo Reserve Limited Edition Cameroon, this time from “Zack The Stogie Man”. He writes: The flavors were very robust right off the start. There were a couple flavors that struck me right away. There was a subtle spice and a mild sweetness off the light. These flavors altered [...]
Brian Hewitt has posted a very positive review of the brand new Perdomo Reserve LImited Cameroon Edition Petit Corona on Stogie Review. This is what he has to say about the flavour: The first few puffs of the Cameroon Petit Corona provided an impressive rich and sweet combination of graham, tobacco and grass flavors. As [...]
Blake over at Stogie Fresh has posted a new review on a Perdomo Lot 23 Maduro Belicoso that has been sitting his humidor for three years.
Samuel Spurr at Inlumino Cigar News Australia has posted a very positive review on the brand new Perdomo Exhibición Torpedo Maduro. Excerpts: The new Perdomo Exhibicion Torpedo, is a monster of a cigar. Call it what you will, a pyramid or torpedo (I believe the two terms are interchangeable, as opposed to the ‘belicoso’ vitola) [...]

Perdomo’s Jason Nelson gives a few tips on how to cut a cigar properly.
Tom says “I’ve been a fan of the original Perdomo Champagne for years now.” And who wouldn’t be? There’s a good reason they are one of our best selling sticks. After an excellent detailed review, he concludes with: “This was a good medium to upper medium bodied cigar. It differs greatly from it’s Connecticut wrapped counterpart. [...]
It was announced on the World Of Perdomo site last week that the brand new Perdomo Reserve Champagne Noir Super Toro and the Reserve Champagne Super Toro are now shipping! The Perdomo Reserve Champagne Noir is blended with dark, oily triple-fermented Cuban-seed Maduro wrappers meticulously aged in bourbon barrels. Filled with hints of chocolate and [...]
Sam Spurr posted this positive review of the Perdomo Cuban Bullet today. His summary: “The Toro natural is a smooth, easy-going, medium-bodied cigar. I love the cross-hair imagery used on the band and box, and it reminds me of Hip Hop group Public Enemy’s logo. The cigar’s imagery provides perfect ammunition for a Cuban emigre [...]
