INTRODUCING

Wrapped in a bold Connecticut Broadleaf Maduro, with a San Andrés binder and Nicaraguan fillers from three distinct regions, this cigar delivers the rich, complex profile our fans have come to expect.

I was always an inch guy from the start of my smoking journey. I have had every casa Carrillo that i see out now except for the bulwark black I have had the black in robusto. I jump at every opportunity when I’m buying cigars locally I have to buy two or three from your catalog

The dark oily wrapper had me a little nervous. I was concerned about the strength. There was nothing to be concerned about. This cigar was bold, full but the flavors were exceptional all throughout the cigar. Moral of the story, don’t be nervous about the dark cigars. Keep up the great work.

The encore black is such a bold cigar. Loved the punch it had. Love the strength. It was very consistent withe the draw, construction, burn, all perfect.
Make Mine a Bulwarks

I’ve sampled many cigars in various vitolas, but the Encore Black in Bulwarks, takes this already incredible blend to another level. There’s a balance that’s achieved in this perfecto, that exceeds the flavors and smoking experience of the parejo. Try it, and you too will be a fan.
Delicious

Can’t even begin to describe this cigar. Excellent cocoa notes and great sweetness! I love the Bullworks as well, can bring out cherry notes with a light bourbon.
