Competition Performance

Balanced airflow and reliable burn performance were the foundation of the cigar's group-stage victory. Perdomo 10th Anniversary Champagne Purito completed group play with a victory over ACID Blondie. Its group-stage losses came against Joya de Nicaragua Clásico Robusto and Charter Oak Habano Rothschild. Its combination of a six-year-aged premium blend, Perdomo construction, and creamy Connecticut sweetness distinguished it within the 2026 Value Cigar Championship and produced an official Ashology score of 27.0 / 30.

Editorial Assessment

The Perdomo Reserve 10th Anniversary Champagne Purito is a compact 4 × 38 Nicaraguan cigar featuring a bourbon barrel-aged Ecuadorian Connecticut wrapper over six-year-aged Cuban-seed Nicaraguan binder and filler tobaccos. Its mild-to-medium profile opens with cream, honey, cedar, oak, and white pepper. Toasted almond and light coffee deepen the middle while the wrapper's sweetness remains present. Rich yet smooth, the Purito delivers refined Perdomo character and a silky, creamy finish in a short format.
