EP Carrillo Short Run Retro 2021 Short Play 5" * 50

The EP Carrillo Short Run Retro 2021 Short Play is a premium cigar that harkens back to one of the first brands released by Ernesto Perez-Carrillo in 2010. This medium to full bodied robusto uses the Short Run’s original blend, which consists of a savory Ecuadorian Habano Colorado maduro wrapper placed over a Nicaraguan binder and a filler composed of Dominican Republic and Nicaraguan leaves. This specially selected blend delivers notes of coffee, cedar, and pepper with a hint of sweetness. Playing off of Ernesto’s roots in the music industry, the vitolas are named after vinyl record sizes. The Short Play refers to a single song record. The EP Carrillo Short Run Retro 2021 is handmade at Perez-Carrillo’s Tabacalera La Alianza in the Dominican Republic. As its name implies, the Short Run Retro 2021 is a limited production cigar so be sure to order your box today before this “chart-topping” cigar is gone.

• Cigar Wrapper
  Ecuadorian Habano

  The wrapper is the last tobacco leaf to be rolled on the cigar, so it is the one the smoker will see.
  Ecuadorian Habano wrapper has become one of the most used cigar wrappers in the market. Grown primarily by the Oliva family, this tobacco originated from Habano or H2000 seeds brought to Ecuador from Cuba. This leaf is rich and flavorful thanks to the temperate climate of Ecuador and the quality of its volcanic soil.
• Cigar Binder
  Nicaragua

  The binder is a full tobacco leaf that is used to roll the cigar, binding the filler tobaccos together. 
  Nicaraguan cigar binders are produced mainly in Esteli and Jalapa, both lands with volcanic soil and excellent climate for growing tobacco. Binders grown in Jalapa have sweet undertones. Corojo, Habana2000, Criollo, and Maduro binders are all produced in Nicaragua.
