E.P. Carrillo New Wave Resrva New for 2014, boutique brand E.P. Carrillo has released an overhauled version of its popular New Wave Connecticut blend, dubbed the New Wave Connecticut Reserva. Originally a European-only release, EPC has now introduced the New Wave Reserva to the American market.
Ernesto Perez-Carrillo, often known as 'the godfather of boutique cigars', is a Master Blender that owns and operates his own factory in the Dominican Republic. It is here that the New Wave Connecticut Reserva has been meticulously crafted, consisting of Nicaraguan fillers, a new Connecticut Broadleaf binder, and an Ecuadorian Connecticut wrapper that is said to be of a higher priming than the original. The tweaked wrapper selection for the Reserva has given this cigar an added kick, making for a stronger experience. Medium strength and full with flavor, the New Wave Connecticut Reserva provides a lush and pleasant smoking experience, filled with flavors of table cream, nuts, hay, and honey!
E.P. Carrillo New Wave Reserva is no longer available. We have plenty of other great E.P.C. blends though like the Allegiance and La Historia!
