Perdomo Lot 23 Gordito Sun Grown (Natural)

The Perdomo Lot 23 Gordito Sun Grown will captivate you with its beautiful wrapper from Nicaragua, giving it an overall pleasant appearance. The slight sheen of the wrapper and its silky texture reveal themselves upon handling, showcasing the meticulous care taken in its construction. With a diameter of 23.8 mm and a length of 114.3 mm, it is a cigar with a strong presence.

From the very first olfactory contact, the pre-light aromas launch notes of pepper, earth, and cedar, heralding a pronounced personality. Upon lighting, a surge of strength emerges, dominated by spicy aromas that challenge the initial impressions. The evolution of flavors conveys a sense of power, though some may find it a bit aggressive.

On the palate, the cigar delivers an interesting aromatic development across three thirds, oscillating between strength and subtlety. The aromatic complexity is notable, although certain flavors may appear dominant. This strength can sometimes seem unbalanced, making the experience all the more fascinating for enthusiasts of intense sensations.

In the finish, the mouthfeel reveals a medium finish with a slight bitterness, while maintaining coherence in the strong/sweet blend. This creates a unique experience that will surely please aficionados of robusto cigars. The nature of the cigar maintains a delicate balance, but its assertive personality may not suit everyone.

To fully enjoy this cigar, an evening moment, ideally paired with a glass of whisky or rum, could enhance its bold character, thus creating a memorable tasting experience.
