The EP Carrillo Pledge Lonsdale Cigars are the latest instalment of the iconic blend that has quickly earned its place among the greatest smokes of all time. As most smokers know, the EP Carrillo blend was awarded the number one title by Cigar Aficionado for the year 2020.
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.
Pledge is a testament to Ernesto Perez-Carrillo’s dedication to excellence and innovation in cigar crafting. This full-bodied masterpiece is crafted with the finest tobaccos, delivering a rich and complex flavor profile that has captivated cigar enthusiasts worldwide.
The resulting experience lives up to the high expectations of Perez-Carrillo cigars, offering a medium to 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.
"On its own, the E.P. Carrillo Pledge Prequel is a delicious smoke that delivers flavor in bold, zesty parcels of spicy oak, licorice, black cherry and black pepper. Baking spices sing like a holiday chorus, and when you think you’ve tasted all the cigar has to offer, a warm, familiar note of baked apple settles across the palate..."
