Casa Carrillo: A Legacy Reimagined with New Blends to Match

If you’ve ever lit up a Pledge or an Encore and thought, “WOW, these folks know what they’re doing,” buckle up—there’s a new chapter unfolding, and it’s got the same fire behind it.

Say hello to Casa Carrillo—the new name for the family that brought us E.P. Carrillo, Pérez-Carrillo, and INCH. But don’t worry, this isn’t a goodbye. It’s more like a reunion. One name, one legacy, one bold move forward.

This rebrand brings together their Miami roots, Dominican craftsmanship, and Cuban soul under a single roof: Casa Carrillo. The cigars you know and love? Still here. Still incredible. But now wrapped (pun fully intended) in a name that honors the entire journey.

And just to make things even more exciting, they’ve dropped two new blends at the PCA Cigar Show that are turning heads and teasing taste buds.

? New Release #1: La Historia Silk

Wrapper: Ecuadorian Habano
Binder & Filler: [Not listed, but expect layered Dominican influence]
Body: Medium
Profile: Silky, smooth, and rich in complexity. Expect notes of toasted almond, baking spices, and subtle sweetness with a dry cocoa finish.

This special release is the brainchild of Lissette Pérez-Carrillo and was selected by a panel of powerhouse women in the cigar world. Elegant and nuanced, Silk is everything you’d hope for from the La Historia line—refined but still rooted in character. It’s set to hit shelves Fall 2025, and when it does, it’ll go fast.

? New Release #2: Casa Carrillo Essence Connecticut

Wrapper: Ecuadorian Connecticut
Binder: Honduran Criollo 98
Filler: Dominican & Honduran
Body: Mild
Profile: Creamy, crisp, and impeccably balanced with notes of cedar, light spice, and a touch of honey.

This one’s rolled at the Agroindustrias Diadema factory in Honduras and is the latest addition to the Essence Series. It’s the kind of cigar that makes mornings worth waking up for. Comes in Corona, Robusto, and Toro, with shipping starting next month.

Why It Matters

This rebrand isn’t just a new name—it’s a signal. Casa Carrillo is doubling down on everything that made them great. Legacy blends? Still fire. New projects? Just as thoughtful, just as premium.

They’re not chasing trends—they’re building timeless experiences. One cigar at a time.
