Thumbs up Perdomo Ltd. Reserve 10th Anniversary Champagne Review

Size: 5 x 54
Shape: Robusto
Wrapper: USA/Conn Shade
Filler: Nicaragua
Binder: Nicaragua
MSRP: $6.50

I had this cigar aging for about two months. I received it in a bomb from a
brother on another board. I've never been a big fan of conneticuts, but i
figured i'd give it a shot anyway!

Prelight Draw: I tasted flavors of sweet grass, nutmeg, cinnamon, and a hint
of pepper. I punched this cigar and the draw was effortless.

1st 3rd: I lit up the stick and immediately tasted a blast of pepper and toast.
The burn line was razor sharp. the ash was a light grey and formed very nicely.
There was a lot of smoke produced that was oily and very creamy on the finish.

2nd 3rd: The smoke that's being produced is very smooth. Flavors of cedar,
toast, and pepper are present in the retrohale. The smoke is oily and very
creamy so it's very consistent at this point.

Final 3rd: I get the flavors of wood (mainly cedar), toast, and now coffee is
kicking in. This cigar finishes with a perfect blend of cedar and coffee. I didn't
enjoy the first 10th Anniversary Champagne that i smoked (A toro at my local b&m)
but this one was a gem!

Smoking time: Approximately 1hr

Nice review Excel. It was cold enough for gloves, but not socks?

Talking Re: Perdomo Ltd. Reserve 10th Anniversary Champagne Review

Those my friend are probably the most comfortable shoes i own! I wanted to
edit them out of the picture, but i was like what the hell (because they're so ugly!) If you notice, the pics started w/ no gloves, (and no socks) but my
hands started freezing so I grabbed some!

Thanks!

Nice review! I think your description is spot on for these cigars. They are a very flavorful mild smoke.

Thanks for the great review! I usually smoke full-bodied or medium-to-full-bodied cigars, but these Perdomo's are very nice and I enjoy them alot. I got a box at a Perdomo event last summer and only have a couple left. I will definately need to get some more
