Tierra del Sol by Perdomo. This is another budget bundle by Perdomo in the mold of their Slow Aged Lot 826. They are boxed pressed for a rectangular shape vs. the traditional round. A pack of 20 goes for about $45. They are mild in body.
These need to marinate in the humidor for at least 5 days before enjoying. I lit one up as soon as the bundle arrived and it was quite harsh. I almost threw it out. My second one I had was 5 days later and every one I've had since has been slightly better than the last. They need some time. The aroma is pure cocoa. Very nice smell. The flavors are a little more bland and are of smooth tobacco and slight cocoa, with a heavy charcoal like tone over it all.
I would rate these as just OK. They aren't bad, but not anywhere near Perdomo's other pieces. The Lot 826's are a considerable notch above in my opinion, for the same price. But I'm glad I sampled
