The actual term "Maduro" when it comes to cigars is the process in which the wrapper is grown and processed. Just because a wrapper is "dark" doesn't mean it's a Maduro. A true Maduro wrapper has gone through the process. Sadly, certain company just dye the cigar and call it a Maduro. I'm not claiming that Perdomo does this, but I know certain brands who do.
Rocky Patel does this, and the first one I smoked that left brown stains on my lips and fingers will be my last. Too many good cigars out there that aren't false advertising, IMO. I don't care what the color is, just don't try to make it something it's not. Just my 2 cents…
