Perdomo Reserve 10th Anniversary Box-Pressed Maduro Churchill

The Churchill is the long format in Perdomo's Reserve 10th Anniversary Box-Pressed Maduro line, a 7 x 54 box press for smokers who want the barrel-aged maduro to last. It is a Nicaraguan puro through and through, with a maduro wrapper aged six years plus 14 months in retired bourbon barrels.

What it tastes like

Medium-full and dessert-sweet, it pours out dark cocoa and espresso early, then settles into brown sugar, rain-soaked oak, and a dark vanilla finish. The Churchill length lets all of that develop slowly, so the second half is where the richness really shows. The box press makes it comfortable to hold for the long haul, and the burn stays honest the whole way.

Who it's for

This is a relaxed evening cigar for anyone who already enjoys a sweeter maduro and has time to spare. For a shorter sit, the Epicure toro is the same blend. If you are weighing the dark wrapper against a paler one, our maduro vs Connecticut guide helps, and there are more Perdomo cigars to browse.

Save it for after dinner with a bourbon, then log it in the Casa DNC app.
