The 1881 Perique Cigars are renowned for their unique experience, derived from using the mysterious and rare Perique leaf, fermented in oak barrels. This fermentation method gives the cigars strong pepper notes, which gradually shift into a subtle sweetness. The aroma is enveloped in a long-lasting spice, finishing smoothly.
The "1881 Perique" brand is produced by Tabacalera Incorporada, a company with a long history, known for its unique ability to blend the rare Perique leaves from St. James Parish. This combination creates a distinctive aromatic profile, which has begun to fill select cigar divans and smoking lounges in the United States.
Intriguingly, the "1881 Perique" line combines Perique tobacco from the Philippines and Louisiana, an unusual choice in the premium cigar market. Typically, Perique tobacco is used in pipe tobacco blends, known for its intensity. The combination of Filipino tobacco with Perique creates an interesting and complex blend.
Each "1881 Perique" cigar measures 128 mm in length and has a ring gauge of 52. With a wrapper from Indonesia, a binder from Brazil, and filler from Brazil and the Philippines, these cigars offer a smoking experience of about 1 hour and 10 minutes. They are appreciated for their solid construction and distinctive flavor.
