perfecto

Dual-tapered tobacco roll

Perfecto is a cigar with a distinctive shape—thick in the middle, tapering to points at both ends.

The term comes from Spanish for "perfect," reflecting the craftsmanship such shaping requires.

Outside cigar contexts, perfecto appears as an enthusiastic affirmation, essentially a stylized way of saying "perfect": We'll meet at seven? Perfecto.
