E. P. Carrillo, Encore Majestic
Shown to scale against the longest cigar we stock
Named the top cigar of 2018 by Cigar Aficionado magazine, this Robusto epitomizes Ernesto Perez Carillo's expertise. The filler includes tobacco from three Nicaraguan regions: Esteli, Condega, and Jalapa. Pre-light aromas feature hints of leather and cedar. The construction is firm and flawless. The initial puffs evoke childhood memories with chocolate and cocoa mingled with woody nuances. The draw is even, and the second third introduces bolder flavors, with spices and cedar blending beautifully. The final third offers more mineral notes while revisiting earlier aromas. This Robusto is undeniably a triumph.
