E.P. Carrillo Pledge
Pledge is a study in restraint and reward. Built around a striking Connecticut Habano wrapper, a Cuban-seed varietal grown in Connecticut, it rests over an Ecuadorian binder and Nicaraguan filler from the family's Tabacalera La Alianza in the Dominican Republic. The Prequel robusto earned Cigar Aficionado's highest honor as its Cigar of the Year for 2020, and the line remains a benchmark for refined, layered smoking. We are proud to offer it.
