EP Carrillo Encore Black

The Encore Black cigar was released by EP Carillo as a follow-up to their award-winning Encore cigar. It is a bolder and spicier reimagined version of the original with more layers of complexity. The blend’s dark, muscular Connecticut Broadleaf wrapper is supported by a Mexican San Andres binder and a Nicaraguan filler composed of leaves from Esteli, Condega, and Jalapa, regions well-known for their excellent tobaccos. The leaves are aged and undergo a meticulous hand-fermentation process, which contributes to the cigar’s unique flavor profile and enjoyment. The cigar’s memorable blend is matched by its superb construction and represents the Perez-Carrillo family’s passion and dedication to crafting memorable cigars.

Another gem of a cigar from EPC. It takes Encore to another level. Medium+. Charred oak/wood, earthy, pepper, touch of floral notes, and vanilla cream on the finish. Goes great with a coffee or an old-fashioned drink. The sweetness and balance come through by the 2nd/3rd. Even burn and smooth easy draw. Nice aroma and taste. It was a quick burner so take your time with it. Final 3rd brings out that smoky EPC profile. The original flavors mellow out and becomes easier. But probably could be sold for only a dollar more than the original Encore Majestic. $17 is a bit harsh. Special occasion only cigar.

Hello, I am lucky enough to buy 2 boxes of the Encore Black. Both boxes contained cigars that were very dry. They were not ready to smoke right out of the box. A previous review of this cigar on this website stated his cigars were also very dry. However, I couldn’t wait to smoke a couple of these cigars. The two cigars I smoked were very good. I will smoke the others once they get to proper humidification. I found some reviews from other smokers that had the same comment about the cigars being less than the ideal humidification. Probably give the cigar a better review once they are able to be smoked.

EP Carrillo Encore Black review Arrived yesterday, smoking one today. One day in my humidor with the cello on. Good flavor, no harsh burn, a bit of spice and leather. Nice ash but some uneven burn. That will correct after being in a humidor for a while and aging a bit. At the end of the first 3rd, the uneven burn(canoeing) straightened itself out with no touch up.(quality) Smooth retro hale but can still pick up the spice without harshness, dark espresso Into the 2nd 3rd(halfway) still has a consistent flavor profile. Spice, dark chocolate and earthy and espresso Last 3rd Still has a consistent flavor profile and has an even burn. The ash has remained consistent also. I rarely smoke a stick to the nub and using one finger and thumb to finish the quality smoke. I can see this being a high demand favorite
