Description
The Perdomo 20th Anniversary Connecticut has beautiful 8-year old Ecuadorian Connecticut wrappers that are bourbon barrel-aged for an additional 8 months to ensure the rich, creamy flavors pair perfectly with the higher priming Cuban-seed Nicaraguan binder and filler blend that offers a rich, complex smoke with a slight hint of honey and spice on the finish.

Initial Thoughts: Prior to 2019, I didn’t smoke a lot of Perdomo cigars. Since 2019, I’ve smoked a lot of them. Today we’re enjoying the Perdomo 20th Anniversary Connecticut Epicure, the lighter, more natural brother of the maduro version I reviewed earlier this year.
This cigar has an Ecuadorian Connecticut wrapper that is very light and quite beautiful. It’s easy to light; the draw is great; I’m excited to dive in!

Final Thoughts:
The Perdomo 20th Anniversary Connecticut Epicure is a well-made cigar with good flavors. Though it’s not as bold as the Perdomo Champagne, it’s still quite delicious.
I enjoyed this cigar. There’s nothing to complain about, the flavors are fantastic, and the price is right. I’d recommend it and I’d smoke it again.
For these reasons, the Perdomo 20th Anniversary Connecticut Epicure earns a CigarScore 5.
