The E.P. Carrillo Honduras is the third release in EPC's Essence Series, a collection of six cigars, each distinguished by its wrapper leaf. True to its name, the E.P. Carrillo Honduras cigar features a Honduran Olancho San Agustín (OSA) wrapper, paired with a Honduran binder and a blend of Honduran and Nicaraguan fillers. This line, unlike previous Essence Series cigars, is produced at one of the Plasencia family's factories in Honduras, differing from EPC's own Casa Carrillo factory in the DR.
This medium-bodied cigar is crafted to offer a fuller-flavored smoking experience. Hobbyists can expect notes of dark chocolate, roasted espresso, oak, and earthy tones, creating a rich, layered profile. The OSA wrapper, with its two-year fermentation process, adds complexity, contributing both subtle sweetness and a hint of spice to balance the overall flavor.
The E.P. Carrillo Honduras continues Carrillo's exploration of wrapper tobacco within the Essence Series, serving as a rare Honduran-focused blend in the EPC portfolio. This release emphasizes the expertise of both E.P. Carrillo and the Plasencia family, blending rich flavors with refined complexity. With its balanced profile of dark chocolate, espresso, oak, and earth, the E.P. Carrillo Honduras stands out as a unique offering in the Essence Series, designed for those seeking a memorable and elevated smoking experience.

Great chocolate and espresso flavor with the first third Started to canoe and needed several touch ups Got more oaky flavors towards the third end Will reserve lower rating until trying the other four in the 5 pack
