Perdomo Ships Reserve 10th Anniversary Box-Pressed Maduro, Sun Grown

The new box-pressed versions of Perdomo’s 10th Anniversary are now shipping to stores.

Nick Perdomo Jr., the company’s owner and ceo, announced that the Perdomo 10th Anniversary Box-Pressed Maduro and the Perdomo 10th Anniversary Box-Pressed Sun Grown are now shipping, a bit earlier than the original announced ship date of August.

As for the Sun Grown, it too is made entirely of Nicaraguan tobaccos. the Sun Grown uses a six-year-old wrapper that spent 10 months in bourbons barrels, while the fillers are also six-years-old.
