EP CARRILLO
For four generations, Carrillo Cigars have been created to deliver the unforgettable experience that comes with unwavering attention to detail.
Carrillo Cigars have always been about innovative and ground breaking ideas. Today, their cigar lines each have a unique and distinct set of characteristics that define each Series – and the type of experience the cigars embody. The Series themselves are each based on a greater concept which reflect an aspect of the family’s cigar-making heritage and the authentic pride with which each cigar is made.
PLEDGE
The EP Carrillo Pledge is the third release in the highly rated Perez-Carrillo Series, which includes the #2 La Historia which pays tribute to the Perez-Carrillo family’s history in the tobacco industry, and the #1 Encore, which was dedicated to Carrillo’s grandchildren.
The Pledge is dedicated to cigar aficionados. It also embodies Ernesto Perez-Carrillo’s promise to his fans to “never stop working with the best tobaccos and bringing new and innovative blends” Featuring a unique Connecticut wrapper, a leaf that Ernesto had become fond of during the early '80s. This wrapper has been combined with an Ecuadorian binder and all-Nicaraguan fillers, with the recipe being finalised with a box-press.
The resulting experience lives up to the high expectations of Perez-Carrillo cigars, offering a medium/full intensity and long-lasting complexities of red pepper spice, hickory, candy-covered chocolate, aromatic botanicals, nougat, and a dark underbelly of ripe stone fruit.
