PERDOMO UNVEILS EDICION de SILVIO® 'MADURO' AT RTDAWill Also Introduce Standalone 'Restock' Cachés
MIAMI - Tabacalera Perdomo, S.A., one of the world's most distinguished cigar manufacturers, today announced it will enhance its award-winning EDICION de SILVIO® ultra-premium cigar brand with EDICION de SILVIO® 'Maduro', a secretive blend of all-Cuban seed tobaccos balanced with a rich mosaic of delicate, complex flavors derived from rare, deeply aged superior grade maduro wrapper. Cultivated, crafted and aged to perfection, EDICION de SILVIO® 'Maduro' is available in four classic sizes: 'Robusto' (5" x 54), 'Double Corona' (7 ?" x 50), 'No. 2 Torpedo' (6 ? x 54) and 'Salomon en Cedro' (7 1/4" x 49 x 60). Fifty of each size are delicately stocked in a slide-top, perforated Spanish cedar caché surrounded by boldly fragrant ribbons of Spanish cedar (except 'Salomon en Cedro' which is exquisitely packaged in 24 wax-sealed, aerated cigar 'vessels'). These shavings are meticulously hand-carved from the rich oily heartwood of the tree, infusing a delicate aroma and a distinctively elegant finish to each and every cigar. The wax-sealed cigar caché and Spanish cedar shavings are then concealed under lock and key within a rustic "Spanish Galleon" mahogany tobacco chest.
Also being introduced are EDICION de SILVIO® Cachés, 25-count 'restock' vessels for EDICION de SILVIO® trademark Spanish Galleon tobacco chests for its 'Natural' and 'Maduro' line extensions. Available in 'Robusto', 'Double Corona' and 'No. 2 Torpedo' vitolas, EDICION de SILVIO® Cachés provide additional wholesale price discounts to retailers and are available only to qualified EDICION de SILVIO tobacconists. Recognized as 2004's 'BEST OF THE BEST' by the Robb Report, EDICION de SILVIO® is a highly limited cigar line which commemorates the memory of Nick Perdomo's late grandfather, Silvio Perdomo. The savory all-Cuban seed tobaccos used for EDICIÓN de SILVIO® have been culled into a rich and aromatic binder and filler crop that Perdomo and his grandfather Silvio began aging before his passing in 1997 in large 50-year old vintage oak casks. The thick, time-honored vessels were discovered by Silvio and Nick, Jr. during their many journeys to Jalapa and obtained from a family that had owned a plantation there for processing and fermenting tobacco until the Sandinista revolution of 1979. Housed in a heavily guarded aging chamber on the Perdomo family production compound in Esteli, these distinctively spice-laden casks were used to house the special tobaccos created for EDICIÓN de SILVIO® under the explicit guidance of only three men: Silvio Perdomo, his son Nick Perdomo Sr. and grandson Nick Perdomo, Jr. Tabacalera Perdomo S.A. is one of the finest and most distinguished premium cigar manufacturers in the world. Headquartered in Miami Lakes, Florida, with manufacturing and agricultural facilities in Esteli, Nicaragua, Tabacalera Perdomo is a closely held, family run company, whose highly acclaimed cigar brands include Edicion de Silvio®, Estate Seleccion Vintage 1991®, Perdomo Patriarch®, Perdomo Reserve 10 Year Anniversary®, Perdomo Gran Cru®, Perdomo Habano®, Perdomo2®, Perdomo Lot 23® and Perdomo Fresco®.
