E.P. Carrillo Pledge Prequel

E.P. Carrillo was founded by the legendary blender Ernesto Perez-Carrillo, and its family line is known for its deep emotion and excellent craftsmanship. The Pledge series is a tribute to "loyalty" and "commitment," and the Prequel, as the prequel to this series, continues the family's profound reflection on cigar heritage. It represents Ernesto's connection to the past, present, and future, telling the brand's story of continuous advancement with selected tobaccos and innovative craftsmanship.
