This Nicaraguan stogie pack delivers four 6"x54 torpedoes showcasing Perdomo's sun-grown wrapper magic.

The family-owned operation runs tight quality control from Esteli's volcanic soil to Miami distribution centers.
Cold Draw: Dried fruit sweetness with faint cedar spice behind the teeth
Thick smoke production hits with black pepper kick. The 20th Anniversary blend starts earthy - wet clay and roasted coffee beans dominate. Retrohale brings out hidden caramel notes. Watch the burn line; these need regular rotation to stay even.
Lot 23 variant shifts gears with macadamia nut creaminess. Spice transitions from sharp pepper to cinnamon warmth. Leather undertones emerge as oils concentrate near the band. Ash holds solid inch-plus despite 54-ring girth.
Nicotine strength peaks in Habano BBA edition. Dark chocolate bitterness balances residual sweetness. Last inch gets ashy unless purged properly. Ends with signature Nicaraguan tobacco punch - not for novices.
These puros start at Finca Natalie farm in Esteli where leaves sun-cure in 40-foot tall barns. Fermentation happens in 2-ton pilons over 12-18 months. Final touch? Barrel-aging in repurposed bourbon casks. The sampler showcases their four main sun-grown blends without committing to full boxes.
For $7 per stick, you're tasting prime Nicaraguan tobacco with serious aging treatment. Construction holds better than most samplers - only minor wrapper veins observed. Pair with espresso or añejo tequila to cut through the spice. A solid intro to medium-full bodied cigars that won't wreck your palate.
