Perdomo Lot 23


Churchill 7x50 

One of the best farms Perdomo has is called Lot 23. It sat unused, until Nick Perdomo, Sr. decided it was time to use the fertile land that had sat fallow for so long. In September of 2000 an exceptional Cuban seed crop was grown on Lot 23 and plans were made to release a new cigar using the tobacco grown from this phenomenal harvest. The tobacco was fermented from January of 2001 until January 2002. The leaves from Lot 23 were hand selected by Perdomo, Sr. and Jr. and then aged for over 3 years in bales. After being rolled Perdomo Lot 23 is aged an additional 6 months. 
 
Perdomo Lot 23 became a very special project for Nick Perdomo, Jr. after his father passed in 2004, and the fulfillment of a dream crop was left to him. Lot 23 is the realization of that dream. Perdomo Lot 23 is an amazing cigar, medium to full-bodied the Cuban seed tobacco, used as filler and binder, gives the cigar loads of spice and a deep, earthy flavor with a hint of hazelnut. The silky, dark brown Ecuadorian grown Connecticut wrapper also gives the cigar balance and a creamy finish, making Lot 23 a smooth but full-flavored cigar. Perdomo believes Lot 23 meets his father’s strict expectations of quality and now Perdomo Lot 23 stands as a tribute to a father and son’s vision.
