What type of cigar cutter is best?

The best cigar cutter depends on personal preference. Guillotine and double blade cutters offer clean, straight cuts, V-cutters create a focused draw, and punch cutters provide a compact cutting option.

Do cigar cutters affect the draw?

Yes. A proper cigar cutter helps preserve the cigar cap and allows consistent airflow, which contributes to an even and enjoyable draw.

Can one cigar cutter be used for all cigar sizes?

Many cigar cutters are designed to accommodate a range of ring gauges, but larger cigars may perform better with wider cutters or V-cut styles.

How do I properly cut a cigar?

To properly cut a cigar, remove only the cap just above the shoulder using a sharp cutter. Cutting too deeply can damage the wrapper and affect performance.

E.P. Carrillo Allegiance Confidant

6" x 52 | Box-Pressed | Handmade in Nicaragua

A powerful collaboration between two cigar legends, the E.P. Carrillo Allegiance Confidant is the perfect harmony of heritage, craftsmanship, and flavor. Blended by Ernesto Perez-Carrillo and produced by the renowned Oliva Cigar Co., this medium-to-full-bodied cigar delivers a rich, complex smoking experience worthy of its 94-point rating.

Wrapped in a striking Ecuadorian Sumatra-seed Colorado wrapper, this box-pressed features a core of carefully aged Nicaraguan binder and filler tobaccos, resulting in bold notes of spice, toasted nuts, earth, and black coffee, balanced by a subtle floral aroma and natural sweetness.

As the first Carrillo blend ever crafted outside his own factory, the Allegiance Confidant stands as a tribute to the enduring relationships within the cigar industry—celebrating loyalty, trust, and the pursuit of perfection.

Join the legacy. Light up a cigar that honors craftsmanship and connection. Available now at Cigar Inc.
