E.P. Carrillo Encore Black Cigarros (5.3x52 / Box 10)

Casa Carrillo Encore Black offers a darker, richer interpretation of the Encore portfolio, bringing together a bold Connecticut Broadleaf Maduro wrapper with select tobaccos from Mexico and Nicaragua. Created for adult cigar enthusiasts who appreciate fuller flavors and Maduro character, Encore Black showcases a carefully composed multinational blend with an emphasis on depth, spice, and complexity.

The centerpiece of Encore Black is its dark Connecticut Broadleaf Maduro wrapper, a tobacco prized for its substantial texture and naturally rich character. Beneath the wrapper is a binder grown in Mexico's San Andrés Valley, adding another layer of earthy depth to the blend.

The long-filler tobaccos are sourced from three prominent Nicaraguan growing regions: Condega, Estelí, and Jalapa. Bringing together tobaccos from these distinctive regions allows Encore Black to showcase multiple dimensions of Nicaraguan character, complementing the richness of the Connecticut Broadleaf Maduro wrapper and Mexican San Andrés binder.

Generally full-bodied with medium-to-full strength, Casa Carrillo Encore Black offers tasting notes that may be reminiscent of dark cocoa, espresso, earth, cedar, roasted nuts, black pepper, and warm spice, accompanied by underlying natural tobacco sweetness. The combination of Broadleaf, San Andrés, and Nicaraguan tobaccos creates a layered profile designed to develop throughout the smoking experience. Individual flavor, aroma, strength, construction, and overall smoking characteristics may vary by cigar and individual palate.

For adult cigar enthusiasts drawn to Connecticut Broadleaf Maduro, Nicaraguan tobaccos, and rich, full-bodied profiles, Casa Carrillo Encore Black offers a distinctive addition to the Encore collection. Its combination of a dark Maduro wrapper, San Andrés binder, and fillers from Condega, Estelí, and Jalapa makes it an appealing selection for those looking to explore a deeper and more robust expression of Casa Carrillo's blending style.
