I am not an old timer but my favorite Perdomo so far is the Lot 23 Natural which I purchased about a month ago. I thought the Perdomo-2 was OK but nothing I would go running after.
Toro! Toro!

O.K., so I dug around in the trade/pif/pass humi and found three perdomo's in there and smoked them all yesterday.
Remainder cameroon: I only got through about 1/2 of this one. Construction was o.k., but the flavor was just sour and not for me at all.
Perdomo 2 Limited 2008: This was a much better cigar than the remainder, I made it all the way through. Pretty solid medium strength and flavor, kinda spicy through the nose for the first 1/2 then tamed down and was straight forward to the end.
Habano corojo: By far the best of the bunch. Very nice construction and flavor. Solid medium body, edging to the full side of strength towards the nub. I'll need to pick up a few more of these and check them out.

yep, the Habano corojo and the Lot 23 are very good cigars for me. the lot 23 leaves me with a nice buzz.
my local B&M got me started on Perdomos several years ago saying that they were a good cigar for the money and that they had been getting better lately.

I definitely don't pass up a Lot 23 maduro! Having only been smoking for a couple years now I didn't really know until this post that Perdomo had a bad rep earlier. It's good to see businesses adapt like this.
Has anyone been able to pinpoint what may have led to this betterment? Is it just QC or does it go deeper I wonder.

Bringing up the dead I know...but, I wanted to add my 2 cents. It is raining cats and dogs here as I sit in my garage puffing on an Perdomo 10th Anny Criollo that I got free with a purchase from Famous. The freebies also came with some AB Tempus Criollos which I have not tried yet. As far as the Perdomo, it is not something I would have gravitated towards otherwise, but I have to say it is damn good and I'm glad I have 4 more.
