Perdomo Slow-Aged 826 Churchill

Cigar Mission #27

My name is Agent 6. My mission was to review the Perdomo Slow-Aged 826 Churchill. As an asset of The Cigar Spy agency I promise to respect the A.S.H.E.S. code of honor. These are the facts. This is my report.

Target Name:

Perdomo Slow-Aged 826

Target Vitals:

Wrapper: Connecticut
Binder: Nicaragua
Filler: Nicaragua
Vitola: Churchill (7″x52)

Background Info:

This target was transported to me via @doc8466. Thank you for helping us capture this character! As far as the cigar itself, I don’t have much info. It originates from Esteli, Nicaragua. It’s a blend from Perdomo. It’s easy on the wallet.

Mission Notes:

Interestingly, the weight of this cigar was less than other churchill-sized cigars in my humidor holding cell. It was densely packed, just didn’t have the same feel. Connecticut wrapper was in good shape but lacked in elegance (similar to Agent 3 when the Pittsburgh Penguins lose to any team on the planet). Complexities I’m not accustomed to from a Connecticut wrapper. Awesome aroma. Medium in body. Delicious. I was unable to identify flavors other than natural tobacco and some other complex flavors. That’s a first. Burning characteristics were spot-on.

Final Statement:

This target demands your attention. If I smoked this cigar without a band, I would have put it in the $6-7 price range from the flavor complexities alone. If you come across the Slow-Aged 826 by Perdomo… interrogate without fail or price prejudice.

AGENT TIP # 27: DO NOT deploy your standard issue Spy InflationPants without proper certifications.

    nice work El Deano… I want one!

  2. Sticks says:

    I fully agree. I really like this cigar. It had a nice flavor profile. It burned evenly and had perfect draw and it could command a much higher price thatn the two bucks a stick I see around at online retailers. It’s one of my budget favorites.

    It took a little longer than usual for the page to load but i’m happy i stuck around.
