Nicaraguan terroir shines through every puff of this 2018 Cigar of the Year winner. EP Carrillo Encore uses 100% Nicaraguan tobacco, from Connecticut Shade-grown wrapper to fillers sourced from specific farms. Creamy cedar, roasted almond, and white pepper build into a medium-to-full crescendo. Ernesto Perez-Carrillo's mastery of single-origin blending earned 96-rated acclaim. Perfect for connoisseurs who want proof that terroir matters as much in cigars as wine.
