E.P. Carrillo Allegiance Confidant

The Perez-Carrillo series has consistently delivered exceptional cigars, with Allegiance being the latest addition as its fourth installment. This collaboration saw the renowned cigar maker partner with Oliva Cigar Co. to craft a unique blend. The series has a proven track record, with previous releases La Historia, Encore, and Pledge earning top honors, including multiple Top 25 listings and Cigar of the Year awards in 2018 and 2020, respectively. The distinctive band design is consistent across the series, with each release distinguished by a different color; Allegiance features a green band, symbolizing the natural world and tobacco. The blend boasts an Ecuador Sumatra wrapper, while the remaining tobaccos are sourced from Nicaragua. The resulting flavor profile is a masterful balance of sweet and spicy notes, accompanied by a woody undertone, with notable hints of gingerbread, nutmeg, and cinnamon, ultimately finishing with a peppery kick. The synergy of the blend makes it difficult to pinpoint whether it leans more towards an Oliva or E.P. Carrillo style, but the end result is undeniably outstanding.
