E.P. Carrillo La Historia | Dona Elena (Toro) (6.1"x50) | Box of 20

EP Carrillo just can’t miss, and his new La Historia line extends the streak even further. Created to honor all of the members of the Perez-Carrillo family who’ve supported and enabled Ernesto to perfect and continue his craft over the past decades, La Historia is a fitting tribute. Gorgeous, ornate artwork and a blend that was selected for the perfect marriage of texture, flavor, and balance, La Historia employs a Mexican San Andrés wrapper, Ecuadorian Sumatra binder, and Dominican and Nicaraguan long-fillers. Rich, chewy flavors coat the palate before you’re hit with subtleties of roasted nuts, espresso, black pepper, and dark chocolate. Just a hint of sweetness on the finish adds the perfect balance. It’s sensory overload, and it delivers in spades.Great News! In addition to earning the #2 Cigar of 2015 spot, La Historia by E.P. Carrillo recently earned a 95-point rating, noting: "The draw of this dark, box-pressed toro is a touch firm, but brings a dense smoke to the palate, full of peppery notes, tangy wood, hints of raisin and a finish that smacks of chocolate-covered cherries."​
