E.P. Carrillo Allegiance

I Pledge Allegiance… To Carrillo!

Ernesto Perez Carrillo just may be the best master blender still in the business. The release of Allegiance joins the ranks of the Perez-Carrillo Series that contains Pledge - No. 1 Cigar of 2020, Encore – No. 1 Cigar of 2018, and La Historia – No. 2 Cigar of 2014, and all rated 94-points or better. Shortly after its release, Allegiance claimed a 94-rating of its own. Looks like another Carrillo blend is heading for the record books…

It comes in all box-pressed shapes and wears a prized Ecuador Sumatra Wrapper with flavorful Nicaraguan tobaccos underneath. Expect flavors of spice, nuts, sweetness, and a hint of black coffee in a medium to full-bodied blend. Carrillo created the blend, but he’s entrusted Oliva Cigars to handle the production of this one in Nicaragua. Now that’s a duo I think we can all get behind.

Good news! The Allegiance has received a 95-point rating and was nominated the #5 cigar of 2023! The review states "[The cigar] comes together brilliantly setting a sweet-and-spicy tone with a woody undercurrent, snappy bursts of gingerbread and charming accents of nutmeg and cinnamon before the peppery finish."
