The Perdomo Double Aged 12 Year Vintage Connecticut represents the pinnacle of patience and precision in premium cigar craftsmanship. This exceptional cigar utilizes a proprietary two-part aging process where all tobaccos are first bale-aged for ten years, then fermented in charred white oak bourbon barrels for an additional two years. The blend features a beautiful bourbon barrel-aged Ecuadorian Connecticut wrapper combined with rare bourbon barrel-aged Cuban-seed Nicaraguan binder and filler tobaccos, offering a creamy smoke with hints of caramel and cedar, with a rich, buttery finish. This mild to medium-bodied cigar delivers complex nuances of cream mixed with caramel and cedar. As part of Perdomo's legacy of innovation and excellence, this limited production line showcases the company's mastery of bourbon barrel-aging techniques that have helped define the modern premium cigar industry. The Nicaraguan long-fillers are especially grown on the rich volcanic soil found on the Perdomo farm, with these aged beauties fermenting since 2001 and boasting exceptional texture and aroma. The cigars are made in limited quantities and released to only 250 of the finest tobacconists world-wide, with a total of 2,500 boxes per size per blend produced. This outstanding cigar delivers exceptional flavor and complexity, making it an ideal choice for both experienced Connecticut Shade enthusiasts seeking deeper, more robust flavors and novice smokers looking to graduate to something fuller-bodied. These cigars pair exceptionally well with quality scotch or bourbon, providing a lush smoky adventure that brings out the subtle bourbon notes from the barrel-aging process.
