The Perdomo’s are not known for limited editions because well, they don’t make them. It has always kind of been their philosophy to strictly focus on core line products and in an age where there are just too many limited editions out there I cannot say I blame them. But Nicholas Perdomo told Smokin Tabacco that they have been requested a limited edition product for some time now from the consumer base. After a successful few years with the release of the 30th Anniversary and the Legacy, both of which took our number one spot back-to-back, an addition to the Legacy line called the Legacy Father & Son has been introduced.
This release will be the work of both Nicholas and Nick Perdomo Jr. whereas the original and existing Legacy cigars were blended by Nicholas himself. This will create a different spin on the product that uses the family’s new Nicaraguan Shade Grown tobacco, a varietal pioneered and perfected by Nick Perdomo. This release marks the first time Nick Perdomo has created a blend centered around his Nicaraguan Shade Grown tobacco within the Perdomo Legacy brand line.
“It was incredibly important to me that my dad shares his Nicaraguan Shade Grown blend as part of this project. He was the visionary who created this special tobacco and having it as the foundation of Perdomo Legacy Father & Son makes this collaboration truly meaningful. Being able to build upon something he created—and that represents so much of our family’s innovation—is an honor” says Nicholas Perdomo.
The Legacy Father and Son will be available in only one size, a new viola the Perdomo’s have not used before. This cigar is a box-pressed 6 x 48 x 60 x 52 Gran Figurado and will have an MSRP of only $15. Each cigar in the Perdomo Legacy Father & Son series is crafted using 10–15-year aged tobaccos from extremely small, rare tobacco lots, harvested between 2011 and 2016. These filler tobaccos were sourced exclusively from Perdomo’s famed farms in Condega, Jalapa, and Estelí. Due to their limited bale counts and smaller yields, these tobaccos could never be utilized in regular production Perdomo brand – making this release truly exceptional.
Because of this, Perdomo Cigars says this will be an annual to semi annual release. In addition, the cigars will be packaged in fifty count cabinets versus the stand ten or twenty count boxes. Nicholas told us that each store will only a get a few of each variety to help ensure it is spread round as much as possible.
“Working together with my son on these incredible and unique blends has been a truly rewarding experience. Perdomo Legacy Father & Son reflects our shared passion for tobacco, our respect for our customers, and our commitment to quality. Seeing the next generation bring their vision to life makes the future of Perdomo Cigars extremely exciting.” said Nick Perdomo Jr, President and CEO of Perdomo Cigars.
In a press release, Nicholas added his dad’s blend is the Nicaraguan Shade Grown wrapper with a Nicaraguan Sun Grown binder. Nicholas blended the Nicaraguan Maduro and used the Nicaraguan Shade Grown wrapper priming as the binder. Nick and Nicholas then blended the Ecuadorian Connecticut together and used the same Nicaraguan Shade Grown wrapper priming as binder to also add those unique flavors. The fillers were blended using tobaccos from Estelí, Jalapa, & Condega in different variations.
Perdomo says they will be taking orders at the 2026 PCA Trade Show and Convention next month in New Orleans, Louisiana. They do expect to ship these cigars in Q4 of this year, after a preview event at Two Guys Cigars in May.
