Carrillo’s Collection.
Do you want to enjoy a living legend’s private blends? Ernesto’s Humidor is an extremely limited edition collection of his personal cigars for your enjoyment. This guy is a Dominican legend. The master blender behind the original La Gloria Cubana, 2014’s #2 cigar of 2014 La Historia, and Last year’s #1 Cigar of the Year, this is a rare insight into the palate of a bona fide cigar master. Containing thirty cigars in total, ten each of Connecticut, Sumatra, and Maduro all rolled up into a 6” x 54 toro size, each handmade is outstanding and gives you a peak into Ernesto’s personal preferences. This collection was first released back in 2015, giving the tobaccos a nice bit of age by now.
Connecticut – Featuring an Ecuador Connecticut wrapper hugging a blend of Nicaraguan and Dominican long-leaves. Mellow to medium in body, and imparting pleasing nuances of cedar, cream, baking spice, and coffee.
Colorado (Sumatra) – Draped in an earthy Ecuador Sumatra wrapper over a long-leaf Nicaragua core, this blend is medium to full-bodied including flavors of leather, earth, spice, and pepper.
Maduro – A multi-country blend of long-leaves from Ecuador, Nicaragua, and the Dominican Republic is tucked under a dark and oily Connecticut Broadleaf maduro wrapper. Medium to full-bodied, expect to be met with notes of chocolate, coffee, hay, wood, nutmeg, and pepper.
