Perdomo = Berlusconi's Choice?
This might be reaching a bit, but we read an interesting article this morning that suggested that scandle-ridden billionaire Italian P.M. Silvio Berlusconi prefers Perdomo cigars.
Here’s the quote:
AC Milan owner Silvio Berlusconi is a reasonable chap. All he asks for from life is a room full of scantily clad Italian waitresses whenever it suits, an emergency hotline through to the Milanese hairplug clinic, the legal age of consent to be lowered by a couple of rungs, an endless supply of ridiculously expensive Perdomo cigars and Brunello di Montalcino red wine, the odd bunga bunga party here and there…and for Cristiano Ronaldo to join him at the San Siro – if reports in the Italian press are to be believed.
As far as we know there isn’t an official distributor in Italy yet, so they probably expensive because poor Silvio has to import them from the USA or Russia. Fortunately, Perdomo cigars aren’t “ridiculously expensive” in Australia – we’ve deliberately priced our cigars well below comparable Cubans and other non-Cuban brands.
But - if the article is true – it means that Mr Berlusconi, a man who can afford any cigar in the world, chooses to smoke Perdomo. He’s obviously a man of excellent taste. Perhaps it’s because he shares his first name with Silvio Perdomo, our founder’s father, who also lends his name to our Edicion de Silvio blend? Perhaps that’s what Mr B likes to smoke.
