Privada Storytelling
Nick Perdomo has always been a man of milestones, and the 20th Anniversary Series is one of his proudest achievements. Created to celebrate two decades of Perdomo excellence, the Epicure size takes that celebration and stretches it across a broad canvas. At 6 x 56, it’s not just a cigar — it’s an occasion.
Every leaf in the blend is Cuban-seed Nicaraguan tobacco, meticulously aged for six years before being finished in bourbon barrels. That last step infuses the wrapper with a subtle sweetness and added complexity, a kind of alchemy only possible with time and patience. Light it up, and you’re not just smoking a cigar — you’re taking part in Perdomo’s legacy, where family tradition and innovation meet.
Flavor Journey
The opening brings toasted cedar and espresso, quickly joined by sweet spice and roasted nuts. Midway, the bourbon barrel-aged wrapper adds depth with cocoa and caramel-like undertones, balancing the boldness of Nicaraguan tobacco. The final third crescendos with pepper, espresso, and a long creamy finish, leaving a memory of richness that lingers well beyond the last puff.
Why It Belongs in Privada
The Perdomo 20th Anniversary Epicure is the embodiment of craftsmanship and time. It represents not just Perdomo’s two decades of artistry, but also the evolving story of Nicaraguan tobacco itself. With its size, complexity, and celebratory nature, it fits perfectly in the Privada portfolio of cigars worth remembering and collecting.
