Casa Carrillo Deep Blue Vareity 5 Cigar Sampler with Dog Tag

Five cigars. One dog tag. And a lineup built entirely around Ernesto Perez-Carrillo’s most compelling recent work. The Deep Blue Variety Sampler pulls together five distinct expressions from across the Casa Carrillo portfolio and pairs them with the Deep Blue dog tag pendant that makes this one feel like more than just a purchase.

The Encore Black Bulwarks leads the charge in the most commanding format possible. The Bulwarks is the Perfecto vitola of the Encore Black, successor to the legendary 2018 Cigar of the Year, dressed in an 18-month fermented, three-year aged Connecticut Broadleaf Maduro wrapper over a San Andrés binder and Nicaraguan fillers from Condega, Estelí, and Jalapa. It is a medium-to-full body benchmark of what Broadleaf can do in the right hands. The Deep Blue Hades arrives as one of the most talked-about 2026 releases in the Carrillo catalog, a Nicaraguan Jalapa wrapper over a Honduran binder and Nicaraguan fillers that opens with sweetness before building steadily toward earthy depth and serious complexity.

The Endure Cameroon Toro marks Ernesto’s first Cameroon-wrapped cigar in decades, built over a dual Nicaraguan binder of Habano and Criollo ’98 with secos, viso, and ligero from three regions delivering spice, pepper, and a long smooth finish. The La Historia Silk Toro brings Lissette Perez-Carrillo’s community-crafted blend to a box-pressed 6 x 52 canvas, hand-selected Ecuadorian Habano wrapper and medium-body elegance in every draw. And the Essence Honduras Toro closes it all out with Honduran wrapper and binder over Nicaraguan fillers, a showcase of what the Plasencia family grows in the Jamastran Valley delivered with Ernesto’s signature refinement. Five blends. One dog tag. All Carrillo.
