Three Cigars Every Perdomo Lot 23 Fan Should Try

Three Cigars Every Perdomo Lot 23 Fan Should Try

Posted by Cigar Tom on 28th May 2026

Summary:

Building a humidor around the Perdomo Lot 23 Churchill lineup means understanding how each wrapper is unique. The Connecticut delivers mild, creamy smoothness for relaxed occasions. The Natural sits in a balanced medium range with earthy, almond-forward character. The Maduro brings real depth with dark cocoa, espresso, and earth. All three come from the same single-farm tobacco project that began in Estelí, Nicaragua, in 2000.

Introduction

Do all three Perdomo Lot 23 Churchills actually taste different enough to justify being stocked simultaneously? And for someone whose humidor already has the “Natural” variant, is the Maduro a dramatic jump in strength and character? Every cigar in the Lot 23 Churchill range uses tobaccos grown entirely on a single farm in Estelí, Nicaragua. 

The project began in 2000 and has since produced one of Perdomo's most consistent and best-value collections. The wrapper is what changes everything, including the strength and flavour. Here is exactly how each of these cigars is unique.

Perdomo Lot 23 Connecticut Churchill

The Connecticut version uses a 5-year-aged Ecuadorian Connecticut Shade wrapper, paired with Nicaraguan binder and filler from the Lot 23 farm. The Churchill size offers a long, smooth, and mellow smoke. Strength lands at mild to medium, making the experience genuinely relaxed from the first draw through to the finish. The smoke delivers creamy notes of cedar, light spice, and a quiet touch of sweetness.

Perdomo Lot 23 Natural Churchill

Both new smokers and experienced aficionados find this version accessible without feeling underpowered. It is flavorful and balanced, delivering a classic, slow-burning experience that suits extended smoking sessions comfortably. The body is medium throughout, with rich, earthy flavor driving the profile from the start. Flavour notes of almond, cedar, and warm spice develop steadily without sharpening or becoming uneven across the Churchill length.

Perdomo Lot 23 Maduro Churchill

The Maduro version uses a dark, oily Connecticut Broadleaf wrapper aged for five years, paired with Nicaraguan binder and filler from the Lot 23 farm. Strength moves into medium to full territory here, making it the most substantial of the three Churchills in the lineup. The flavor delivers deep, rich notes of dark cocoa, espresso, earth, and a touch of natural sweetness that runs quietly beneath the heavier character throughout the smoke.
