Carrillo is known for is carried out in this line as well, giving this cigar an even burn and satisfying smoke production throughout the entire experience. Definitely not one to be missed, Pledge is sure to eventually be added to the long list of fan-favorites created by E.P. Carrillo. Don't miss out on your chance to try this hidden gem.
Good news! E.P. Carrillo Pledge has been named the #1 Cigar of 2020! The award comes with an impressive 98-point rating, noting: "...E.P.
