EP Carrillo Pledge Prequel - Robusto
EP Carrillo Pledge Prequel - Robusto
Released as the third cigar in Ernesto Perez-Carrillo’s acclaimed Perez-Carrillo series, the EP Carrillo Pledge Prequel - Robusto earned rare distinction when this exact 5 x 50 box-pressed vitola was named Cigar Aficionado’s No. 1 Cigar of the Year for 2020 with a 98 rating. Made in the Dominican Republic at Tabacalera La Alianza, it pairs a USA-grown Connecticut Habano wrapper with an Ecuadorian binder and Nicaraguan fillers for a profile that carries real weight without losing definition.
Expect a rich, full-bodied smoke centered on spicy oak, licorice, black cherry, black pepper, and a warm baked-apple note that adds depth rather than sweetness. The Robusto format keeps the blend focused and concentrated, making it a strong fit for smokers who appreciate layered, assertive flavor in a manageable session of roughly 45 to 60 minutes, depending on pace.
