The Perdomo Lot 23 Maduro delivers a medium-bodied profile of dark cocoa, coffee bean, cedar, and oak that culminates with woody and hearty aroma. This cigar features 5-year aged higher-priming Cuban-seed Nicaraguan Maduro wrappers that add a rich sweetness to the robust 5-year aged Cuban-seed Nicaraguan binder and filler tobaccos. The Perdomo Lot 23 Maduro has complex flavors and outstanding aromas with hints of mocha and spice on the finish. Perdomo Lot 23 Maduro cigars are named for Nick Perdomo's Lot 23 farm in Nicaragua, a special estate he developed with his father, Nick Sr., in 2000. Similar to a wine maker's single vineyard reserve, Perdomo Lot 23 utilizes tobaccos that are grown exclusively on the same plot of land, with the secret to success being the special blending of 5-year aged Cuban-seed Nicaraguan tobaccos from this extremely fertile farm. The tobaccos are aged for a minimum of five years before they're handcrafted to Nick's meticulous standards for taste and consistency. Perdomo Lot 23 was awarded the Best Value Brand of Nicaragua in 2012 by Cigar Journal and is one of the best-selling premium cigars in the world. The Lot 23 family is appropriate for cigar lovers of all experience levels, as the blends, bold as they are, are never overpowering and show fantastic balance and ease of enjoyment. This Maduro variety pairs well with coffee and dark beer and can be considered similar in stature to such Nicaraguan maduro cigars as Oliva Serie G Maduro or Padron Maduro.
