E.P. Carrillo has announced the second annual release of their newest creation: E.P. Carrillo Pledge of Allegiance 2024 cigar. This special limited edition release of 1,776 boxes to be allocated to select retailers, not only represents the culmination of the company’s dedication to excellence, but also serves as a tribute to America’s indomitable spirit and the dream that it embodies. “We’re thrilled to announce the return of the Pledge of Allegiance cigar, following it’s incredible success last year. It’s exceptional quality and the overwhelming response from cigar enthusiasts have inspired us to bring it back in 2024” says Lissette Perez-Carrillo.
Inspired by the American Dream and the journey of the brand’s founder, Ernesto Perez-Carrillo, Pledge of Allegiance 2024 represents more than just a unique blend of tobacco. It’s a testament to resilience, passion, and perseverance. It’s a tribute to the pursuit of dreams, embodied in Ernesto’s incredible journey from his native Cuba to the United States, where he built one of the world’s most respected cigar brands from scratch.
Ernesto Perez-Carrillo comments: “The Pledge of Allegiance 2024 is not just a cigar. It’s a representation of the American Dream that I had the privilege to live. This special blend has been crafted with a vision—to create a smoke that honors the journey every American, whether born in the USA or an immigrant, has taken or is still on. Last year’s reception to the release inspired me to relaunch a 2024 edition. So many people reached out and wrote to me to share their own stories about America—this is what Pledge of Allegiance 2024 stands for.”
This exceptional cigar is housed in an equally unique box. Designed with a timeless elegance, the box features an American flag motif, adding an extra layer of significance to this tribute to America. The band is representative of the bands 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 1-1776.
Pledge of Allegiance 2024 is a masterpiece blend that boasts a USA Connecticut Broadleaf wrapper, an Ecuadorian Connecticut binder, and a combination of USA, Nicaraguan, and Dominican Republic filler. This 6×54 box-pressed cigar (10ct/box) delivers a medium to full-bodied smoke that starts with a hint of sweet spice, evolving into rich notes of cocoa, earth, and a subtle hint of leather. The price is $22 retail per cigar and begins shipping in early June. The complexity and balance of flavors symbolize the rich diversity and unity of the nation it honors.
