Pledge and Encore are my favorites! Your dad is awesome! I'll be trying out the Encore Blacks tomorrow with my Cigar Club.
Amazing let me know how it goes
I am enjoying an Encore as i am re listening to you talk. You have a very comforting voice ,i feel like we are talking over the kitchen table! I want you to come visit us in the Villages. Ask dad, “Dad would you like to go help a new couple husband and wife at their shop in the Villages” 🙏 I love how you speak the family name! ❤ Encore
LOVE the new Encore Black!
Thanks
EPC is top tier ! Catalogue doesn’t miss
Love la historia and encore black !!!!
Awesome
Great rundown. When I think of EPC cigars, the slogan that comes to mind is “Try everything else first.” EPCs are the standard-bearer to me when it comes to unique, well-constructed and elegant cigars. They always can tell a story, but still allow you to have your own. Take care.
PS-
I’ve been enjoying my box of the Encore Black (my first-ever box, signed by your Dad). That said, I save them for the most special occasions (like the recent eclipse!). 🙂
Wonderful feedback
I’m a huge, huge EPC smoker. Best cigars period! Been smoking them since La Historia came out! Pledge and Encore…staples in my rotation.
Thanks
Tell Ernesto I got 22 years today.
He may know what I mean. It was wonderful meeting him 5 years ago I think at “J Shepherd Cigars” where I am employed. I would say Encore & Allegiance are my favorites. ✌️❤️&💡
Will do
La Historians has been fantastic for 10 years. One of the true greats in the Perez- Carrillo line
Appreciate your feedback!
I buy very few boxes of cigars. So far I have purchased 2 boxes of E.P. Carrillo. Wonderful cigars.
Thanks!
I've only been fortunate to try two of those so far - the La Historia and the Pledge. The Pledge is in the top 4 greatest cigars I've smoked in almost two decades of enjoying cigar culture - it is superb. I would sell a vital organ to have all those boxes on the table in front of you! 🤣😂🤣
You guys at E.P. Carillo keep up the great work; and thanks for an informative video.
Thanks for sharing!
Encore is my favorite of any cigar. La historia is second among this line. Great cigars.
Thank you
So far, the La Historia is still my favorite, been enjoying them for several years.
It’s the 10 year anniversary for La historia thanks 🙏
I think this is serendipity! This video just showed up and … I recently wanted to try something new and purchased my first EPC about three weeks ago. Honestly, I had never heard of you guys before I figured what the heck and gave it a go. It was an Inch Natural 70. Holy cow… Hallelujah! It was such a great cigar that I went today and picked up five more Naturals, five Nicaraguans, and a couple of Pledges. Going to let them rest a tad bit, but can’t wait to try them all! My first EPC Natural is what started it all. You have another loyal customer. Cheers!
Thank you!
I'm relatively new to the EP lineup and loving these cigars.
Amazing thank you for the feedback
I've had them all, even the Pledge of Allegiance. La Historia is my favorite and I picked up a box of the Encore Black. All great sticks.👍🏿
Thank you
Hi can you contact us at info@epccigars.com. You won the canvas for commenting!
Thank you for sharing the wonderful history of these cigars. I love learning the stories behind the scenes. I think the Pledge is one of the best cigars I’ve ever experienced!
Thank you!
Pledge and Allegiance are go-tos. Encore is definitely in the rotation. Looking forward to the black.
Great thanks
Very cool that you’re sharing the backstory to the cigar and what it means to your family!! Thank you for making great cigars.
Side note: Can’t wait to try the black!
Let us know what you think
Smoking a Pledge right now and really enjoying this video, thank you!
I keep telling Kole at Tobacco Grove in Maple Grove, MN to get more EP Carrillo! I’m in love with the La Historia and place your brand in my top 5, simply the best tobacco from your farms!
Thank you so much 😊
La Historia is one of my favorite cigars. I think it is better than Encore, Allegiance or Pledge, which seems to get more hype. La Historia, Plasencia Alma Fuerte, and Mi Querida Black from Dunbarton, whichever one I am enjoying at the time, is my absolute favorite. These are the three all-time best sticks. Thank you for making such wonderful cigars.
Thanks
I Love all of the different Carrillo cigars. Always an excellent smoke .Still waiting to try a black. EPC never disappoints!
Thanks!
This is beautiful. I have had La Historia, and I loved it. It is a great cigar. I have had the Pledge and the Allegiance, and at the time, I didn't enjoy those as much as La Historia. But I am willing to give them both another shot. I still have an Allegiance in my humidor, so I will enjoy that one very soon. Thank you for such a great line of cigars :-)
Thank you for your support
Looking forward to giving these a try!
Hope you enjoy!
Love all the EPC sticks!
Thank you 🙏
Best cigars I’ve enjoyed
Thank you
Great info thank you
Glad it was helpful!
🔥Awesome🔥Love it✨
Glad you like it
Pledge is my favorite!
Nice!
My humidor is mostly all E.P. Carrillo since they are my favorite cigars. My go to for a daily is Allegiance.
Very nice!
The whole line is fire
Thanks!
I got an Allegiance wingman in a CRA sampler pack and that brought me here 😊. Will definitely be trying the other EPC blends as well!
Awesome
Awesome video, great cigars, thank you 🙏
Glad you like them!
@@EPCarrilloCigars I’ve been smoking the Allegiance a lot but I also love the encore, pledge and La Historia. All great cigars
Great lineup!
It is! Thanks.
Frankly there’s not enough room to smoke in a nutshell.
Haha
Great video. Looking forward to trying my first EPC. Cheers.
Send us your feeeback!
Mr Carrillo is Godfather of cigars for a reason! He’s the best!
Thanks
Pledge prequel. Period. ❤
Nice
Great San Andres cigar with such a beautiful band now I know who designed the band cheers
🙏❤️
La Historia E-III and Allegiance Wingman are my top favourites and have a constant spot in my humidor.
Thanks!
What a fine video! Much respect to you and your family. I can hardly wait to try the Pledge Prequel and the Encore Majestic that have been patiently waiting in my humidor until just the right time. What am I waiting for, right?! Salud! 😊
Hope you enjoy it!
Just bought 3 EPC pledge’s different sizes. Also Encore & History.
Awesome
The only one Ive ever tried from you guys was the Dusk Stout. It was an amazing smoke I absolutely loved it unfortunately its now discontinued. I'm looking forward to trying La Historia, Encore and the Pledge
Thanks for sharing!
Ernesto is the 🐐🔥🔥
Love it
My favorite is the encore black! Very good cigar with mi Coca Cola 😊
Nice!
Looking forward to try the E B I love CT broadleaf
It's so good!
Allegiance is 🔥
Nice!
I love La Historia! Absolutely box worthy! Probably pledge is a close second. I hope the Allegiance will make it to Vietnam soon! I wonder has epc ever considered an all Dominican blend… 😊
Ernesto certainly has. ❤️
Oh yeah! ❤🎉
I want to know when the 24 allegiance is going to be released! Love all your sticks!
June 🙏
So far La Historia is my favorite. But... the others are nice as well.
Thanks for the feedback
Love all the cigars you guys make! E.P. Carrillo is literally El Maestro! Are there any Signed boxes of Allegiance left out in the market? Would there be any chance of a special Figurado edition of any cigars in the portfolio?
Don’t think any boxes left of allegiance signed. Figurado may be in the works.
@@EPCarrilloCigars ❤️❤️❤️!!!
@EPCarrilloCigars I guess the next time El Maestro is in my area, I will have to ask him if he would be so kind to sign a box for me 🙃
Is Dusk still in production ? Another great CT broadleaf
Unfortunately not at this time 🙏
10k followers let's make a special box with one of each piece of history ❤ limited time only.
Pledge and encore black are my top notch
Nice idea
I'm from Portugal. Where Can I buy your cigars?
Please email our distributor in Portugal fatima@cigarworld.pt
@@EPCarrilloCigars Thank you so much!!!
This is probably the biggest 🙏ask i have ever made in my 67 years but here goes ,we are opening a new cigar lounge run by my Wife Natalie,she and three non english speaking cubans built our lounge it is going to finally open at the end of this month. is there anything provided it’s legal and ethical i could offer to get you to come to our lounge in the villages
Where is your lounge?
The Pledge great CT broadleaf
It’s CT habano seed. But broadleaf is also a great wrapper
I like everything else except this cigar i tried it 3 times and its start nice only the first third its ok not wow ,, then the 2nd and 3d are super leathery and unbearable at all
Which cigar?
