Cigar News: E.P. Carrillo Announces Exclusive Pledge of Allegiance Salomon Cigar in Celebration of America’s 248th Anniversary & 6/24 Live Stream Raffle Event

E.P. Carrillo, internationally renowned for their superb craftsmanship and premium quality cigars, is excited to announce the addition of the exclusive Pledge of Allegiance Salomon cigar to their distinguished collection. This special limited edition release features only 248 boxes, allocated to select retailers, representing the company’s dedication to excellence and paying tribute to America’s 248 years of independence.

Lissette Perez-Carrillo stated:

“We are incredibly proud to present the Pledge of Allegiance Salomon. This cigar not only embodies our commitment to quality and tradition but also honors the rich history and spirit of America.”

The Salomon vitola is one of the most challenging shapes to roll, which is why it is rarely seen in the market. Expert rollers can typically produce between 50 and 60 Salomon cigars a day due to the intricate and time-consuming rolling process. The Pledge of Allegiance Salomon has been meticulously crafted by Casa Carrillo’s most senior pair of rollers since shortly after the release of the Pledge of Allegiance 2023. These cigars have been aging to perfection in Casa Carrillo’s renowned aging room, ensuring an exceptional smoking experience.

Ernesto Perez-Carrillo noted:

“Creating the Pledge of Allegiance Salomon has been a labor of love. This cigar stands as a testament to our enduring dedication to the art of cigar making and our deep appreciation for our nation’s heritage.”

This exceptional cigar is housed in a uniquely designed box, featuring a timeless elegance and an American flag motif that adds an extra layer of significance to this tribute to America. The band design is reminiscent of those on La Historia, Encore, Pledge, and Allegiance, the company’s biggest sellers, but with a change in coloration to emphasize the American color theme. Each box is individually numbered from 1 to 248 and personally signed by Ernesto Perez-Carrillo.

Similar to the toro Pledge of Allegiance 2024, the Salomon is a masterpiece blend boasting a homage to USA tobaccos including a Connecticut Broadleaf wrapper, an Ecuadorian Connecticut binder, and a combination of USA, Nicaraguan, and Dominican Republic filler.

The company says:

This 6 3/4 x 64 cigar (10ct/box) delivers a medium to full-bodied smoke with flavors of dark chocolate, sweet caramel, and smooth creamy coffee notes, all complemented by a touch of spice and nuts. The Pledge of Allegiance Salomon offers a true joy to the smoker’s palate and a pleasure to the nose with its refined aroma. The complexity and balance of flavors symbolize the rich diversity and unity of the nation it honors.

Retailing at $35 per cigar, the Pledge of Allegiance Salomon started shipping along with the toro Pledge of Allegiance 2024 on June 3rd.

RAFFLE

There will be a YouTube live stream event on June 24th at 6:30PM EST where three boxes of the toro and one box of the Salomon will be raffled. Customers are encouraged to sign up to the company newsletter to receive notification of this event.
