Perdomo Patriarch Maduro Lonsdale

Kreth · 11-01-2009, 08:31 PM

I believe I got this stick from a S-CHIP sampler on cbid.

Humidor time: 1 month

Prelight: Well constructed, with minimal veins. Prelight draw was easy, tasting of coffee.

Burn: The burn was a bit uneven, requiring a touchup. Ash was solid and held on well. Draw was easy, but not loose. The burn time was about an hour.

Flavor: Supposedly, the Patriarch series is blended after Nick Perdomo Sr.'s favorite cigars. Well, apparently Nick Sr. liked his smokes pretty mild. I found the flavors decent (coffee, cocoa, and a hint of spice), but very muted. Towards the end of the first third, there were a couple of puffs with even less flavor. Heading into the final third, I got an unpleasant acrid flavor that never entirely went away.

Summary: I'm willing to accept that I may have gotten an off stick, so I'll probably give these another try. If the flavors were a bit stronger, this would've been a very tasty stick.

I have this on my "have to try" list.

I've only had the robusto, but it was good. Pretty solidly medium bodied to me. Not at all complex, but good consistent flavor.

I tried my first one about a month ago. I'm not generally an lonsdale guy but this was actually a pretty good smoke. Plan to pick up a few from my local B&M soon.
