First Look: PERDOMO LOT 23
October 7, 2006
MIAMI- Tabacalera Perdomo S.A. releasd its newest line, Perdomo Lot 23,
at the 2006 RTDA show. Perdomo Lot 23 is named after one of Tabacalera
Perdomo's highly fertile farms located near its factory in Esteli,
Nicaragua. Perdomo Lot 23 is blended with Cuban-seed binders and fillers
grown exclusively on Lot 23. Planted in September of 2000 then harvested
in January of 2001, the crop was fermented for a year between January of
2001 and January of 2002. Bale aged for over three years, the tobaccos
were then rolled into cigars in 2005 and aged for release in 2006.
"Perdomo Lot 23 is very special for our company because it was a project
that my father, Nicolas Perdomo, Sr., pioneered as we started to expand
our growing operations in 2000," states Nick Perdomo, Jr. "My father and
I selected a plot of land near our factory that was untouched. We cleared
the entire field, ran thorough soil analysis and carefully prepared the
grounds. This land was so fertile that we knew it would provide some
incredible tobacco, and it did. I believe that we have met my father's
strict expectations of quality throughout our growing operations and our
manufacturing facility. The final product is a premium cigar that is
extremely flavorful and is available at a very competitive price point."
Perdomo Lot 23 is a medium to full flavored cigar that offers a
well-balanced, complex smoking experience with a rich, smooth finish. The
deeply-aged, Ecuadorian Connecticut-shade wrapper lends not only stunning
aesthetic appeal, but it adds an elegant creaminess to the robust
Nicaraguan fillers. Aficionados may choose from four traditional sizes
packaged in rustic 20-count cedar boxes: Robusto (5"x 50); Toro (6"x 50);
Churchill (7"x 50), and Belicoso (5 3/4"x 54).
Suggested retail prices range from $4.25 to $5.00 per cigar.
