Perdomo Reserve 10th Champagne RobustoAs the best selling Perdomo blend, Reserve 10th Anniversary is known for its consistency, flavor and quality.

Perdomo Reserve 10th has been honored as “Cigar of the Year” in the U.S. and Europe by the Robb Report and the European Cigar Cult Journal in addition to being deemed “Outstanding” by Cigar Aficionado. This blend features a distinguished and contemplative blend of medium-bodied, double-aged Cuban-seed tobaccos; grown in the rich, dark soil of the Perdomo family plantations nestled in the Nicaraguan regions of Esteli, Condega, and the Jalapa Valley.

Champagne features an extra aged Connecticut shade wrapper with a sweet cedary aroma. This variation is made in limited numbers each year and produces a mellow smoke with hints of cedar mixed with a light sweetness. Perdomo Reserve 10th Champagne is smooth, flavorful and a perfect choice any time of day.
