Number 1

14 April, 2026

This is without a doubt the best cigar I’ve ever smoked. It delivered an incredible experience from start to finish, with a rich and perfectly balanced complexity. From the first third, I picked up subtle notes of cocoa and cedar, complemented by a light sweetness. In the second third, the flavors evolved into nuances of leather, roasted nuts, and delicate spices, with the intensity gradually building. The finish was long and насыщен, with a pleasant peppery kick and earthy undertones. The construction was flawless—an even burn, excellent draw, and thick, aromatic smoke. Overall, a truly memorable experience that I would highly recommend to anyone who appreciates complex and elegant cigars (E.P. Carrillo Allegiance Confidant 6×52)

Been smoking Ernesto’s blends since his old company and he is one of my favorite blenders. Allegiance brings hints of some of his old Sumatra wrapped blends but way more complex and updated for today’s smokers. This has become my go to smoke and will always have a place in my humidor.

Great Blend

13 March, 2026

The Casa Carrillo Allegiance offers a smooth, medium-to-full-bodied profile with inviting notes of cedar, roasted nuts, baking spice, and creamy espresso. Hints of sweet earth and light cocoa develop throughout the smoke, creating a refined balance between richness and elegance. It is a beautifully crafted cigar that feels polished, flavorful, and easy to return to again and again.

Still my favorite cigar of all time.

I know that special occasions and cigars have a way of creating a ‘core memory’, but I actually had my first Allegiance after leaving a good friend’s funeral. I had a fine smoke in his honor, and I am grateful for having the Allegiance. The final third made me smile. Thank you, Ernesto.
