Description

The EP Carrillo Encore El Primero is more than a cigar—it is a landmark. As the namesake "El Primero" ("The First") suggests, this vitola represents the genesis of the Encore series, the foundational blend where master blender Ernesto Perez-Carrillo’s vision of strength and sophistication first took center stage. For those who appreciate history in every draw, this cigar is where legacy meets relentless flavor. Cloaked in a refined, sun-grown Ecuadorian Habano wrapper, El Primero stands apart with its elegant strength and aromatic spice. Beneath the surface lies a meticulously curated blend of aged Nicaraguan and Dominican long-fillers—a composition that established the signature full-bodied yet balanced profile the Encore line is celebrated for. This is the blend that set a new standard. From the first light, El Primero commands attention. The palate is greeted with rich notes of cedar, roasted almonds, and creamy coffee, which gradually intensify into layers of black pepper, dark chocolate, and a subtle, sweet finish of toasted oak. Each draw is smooth yet authoritative—a reflection of the confident craftsmanship that defines E.P. Carrillo. Precision-rolled with a classic parejo shape, the Encore El Primero delivers an impeccable burn and consistent performance from start to finish. It’s a cigar made for those who not only enjoy fine tobacco but understand its heritage.
