  EP Carrillo La Historia

  The second of EP Carrillo’s 2014 new cigar releases, La Historia is born from an inspiration of the Carillo’s family history as cigar makers. This superior box pressed cigar has a chocolate colored Mexican San Andres wrapper, an Ecuadorean Sumatra binder and filler from Nicaragua. EP Carrillo La Historia is medium to full bodied with hints of dark chocolate, leather, black pepper and coffee, and a creamy long finish.
• Cigar Section
  Round

  Most cigars are round in shape, as this is how the cigars are rolled by the torcedor.
• Origin
  Dominican Republic

  Most cigars are manufactured in the Caribbean and Central America.
  The Dominican Republic is the world's first producer of cigars. Most factories are located in Santiago, in the center of the island, and in close proximity to the tobacco fields grown in the fertile Cibao Valley. While tobacco and cigars have always traditionally been produced in the Dominican Republic, many Cuban cigar makers established in the Dominican Republic after the Cuban communist revolution, elevating the quality of Dominican cigars.
