The fourth release in the Essence Series, the Essence Connecticut brings a mellow and elegant character to the E.P. Carrillo lineup. It features an Ecuadorian Connecticut wrapper, a Honduran Criollo 98 binder, and a blend of Honduran and Dominican fillers. The result is a smooth and balanced cigar with notes of cream, hay, light pepper, and subtle almond.
Rolled at Agroindustrias Diadema in Honduras, it offers a refined draw and clean finish that make it a perfect pick for those who enjoy Connecticut cigars with a little more depth. Available in Robusto, and Toro sizes, each in 24-count boxes.

The E.P. Carrillo Endure is a return to tradition with a rare Meerapfel-grown Cameroon wrapper that hasn’t been featured in a Perez-Carrillo blend for decades. This is a cigar built on legacy, combining a smooth and flavorful exterior with a Nicaraguan core that brings both strength and finesse.
Medium to full in body, it offers natural sweetness, floral touches, baking spice, and earthy depth, rounded out by a peppery finish and just a hint of nuttiness. Each puff tells a story of resilience and craftsmanship.
Rolled at Tabacalera La Alianza in the Dominican Republic, the Endure is available in box-pressed Robusto and Toro sizes, both packaged in 10-count boxes. A Corona Gorda is set to join the line soon.


A rare annual release from Arturo Fuente’s Unnamed Reserve series, the 2021 edition comes in a 5 ¾ by 48 corona gorda that was rolled in 2016 and released five years later. It features a sun grown Rosado wrapper over Dominican binder and filler, all produced at Tabacalera A. Fuente y Cia. Only 1,000 boxes of 20 were made.
This cigar shows off classic Fuente craftsmanship with a smooth draw, even burn, and refined construction. Each stick comes in cellophane and a cedar sleeve marked ProduXion 2016, nodding to the early aging that sets this release apart.
Ideal for collectors or anyone who appreciates pedigree, patience, and a quiet sense of excellence.
