Review Notes: This cigar reminded me a bit of the 601 connecticut. Not so much in flavor as they are quite different, 601 more spicy and the Perdomo more earthy and rich, but in the fact that they are definitely the 2 most flavorful Connecticut shade wrapper smokes I can remember smoking in a while. I used to like CAO golds in the earlier hours but they always left me wanting. This smoke is more of what I am looking for when I want subtle, Not weak!
