Story & Accolades

The 20th Anniversary Maduro blend was created to honor Perdomo’s two decades of premium cigar craftsmanship. The Nicaraguan Maduro wrapper undergoes extensive fermentation and bourbon-barrel aging, intensifying its natural sweetness and rich chocolatey character. The Gordo size magnifies these qualities, stretching the cigar’s dark, complex flavor profile over a long and immersive smoking experience.

Pairing Suggestions

Beer: Imperial stout or chocolate porter.
