Perez-Carrillo, as a name, has been known in the cigar industry for decades. Ernesto, like his father before him, and all those even earlier have all been integrally involved in making cigars for generations. This is the inspiration behind the Perez-Carrillo Series of Cigars. These cigars are created from generations’ worth of knowledge, poured into unique blends, and which culminate as the creations of Ernesto Perez-Carrillo himself. Only these cigars are allowed to bear the name Perez-Carrillo and each vitola is an homage to someone within the family and celebrate the pride, joy, and cigars of the Perez-Carrillo history.
Encore is the second release in this series — the first being La Historia in 2014. (Encore was followed by Pledge in 2020, creating a group called the Trilogy.)
Encore is very elegant, refined and nuanced from beginning to end, It teams with complex flavors. You’ll find this cigar to be well balanced and naturally aromatic, with notes of tobacco, a hint of cedar, baking spices, and a touch of sweetness . The smooth, complex profile leaves the smoker with a long lasting and alluring finish.
