Experience the highest-rated cigar in recent history with the E.P Carillo Pledge Prequel Robusto. This masterpiece cemented Ernesto Perez-Carrillo’s legendary status by earning the #1 Cigar of the Year (2020) title and a staggering 98-point rating from Cigar Aficionado. It is the third installment in his acclaimed trilogy, following La Historia and Encore.
Distinct from its predecessors, the Prequel features a unique, dark-oily Connecticut Havana seed wrapper over a Nicaraguan binder and fillers. The format is a stunning 5 x 50 Box-Pressed Robusto, designed for a perfect draw. Rated full-bodied, it offers a bold, intense, yet incredibly smooth profile. You will discover deep layers of spicy oak, licorice, and black cherry, finishing with notes of black pepper and baking spices. It is a bucket-list smoke that truly lives up to the hype. For Canadian aficionados who demand the "best of the best," the Pledge Prequel is a mandatory addition to your humidor.
