Perdomo 30th Anniversary Connecticut Churchill - 5 Pack

As a long time smokker of the 10th Anniversary Champagne Churchill, I was anxious to taste the new 30th Anniversary Connecticut Churchill. I am not disappointed. Somewhat reminiscent of the Small Batch Reserve, I find this cigar stronger than the 10th Anniversary by about 25%. There is a lot of smoke and the mouth feel is pleasant. The wrapper and overall construction is superb and the cigar produces a strong dark gray ash. Missing is the vegetal initial taste of the 10th on lighting and I think that this is a good thing. I find the extra $3 a stick a bit too much. Were they the same price, I would gladly alternate between the two. My tastebuds aren’t sophisticated enough to pick out leather or pepper or whatever, but I can say that this is a successful assembly of quality tobaccos. Four Stars. Five if priced like the 10th.
