The Smoking Syndicate: Perdomo Legacy Shade-Grown

Last year at the 2025 PCA Trade Show in New Orleans, Perdomo introduced their newest cigar line, Perdomo Legacy. The Legacy was created by Nicholas Perdomo III for his father, Nick Perdomo Jr, for his 60th birthday. What is so unique about this cigar is the use of a special shade grown tobacco that was cultivated in Perdomo’s Finca Natalie farm in Estelí, Nicaragua. It was developed from a hybrid seed by combining proprietary Cameroon and Cuban tobacco seeds from Perdomo. This tobacco is used as the wrapper for this cigar, but it is also used on the Maduro and Connecticut cigars in the Legacy line as the binder. Coop as reviewed this cigar here, and it was also awarded the 2025 Cigar Coop Cigar of the Year.
