Thank you Ernesto Carillo....

[Garbandz]

Just got a lovely package from Miami,a box of the long awaited Carillo Encore.This is the Edition Inaugural 2009,consisting of Nicaraguan and Dominican tobaccos aged from 2-5 years,with an Ecuadoran wrapper grown in limited quantities.
After a few days of resting them I will send in a review,I am really excited to finally get to try Ernesto's new blend...

Thats EXACTLY how I felt about these smokes when they were released, was hoping for a better priced smoke than 13.00 a piece. :2

I know Ernesto is set to relase a regular production line some time in April of 2010. Last time I spoke to him he was thinking the retail on the cigars would be between $5 and $8, depending on size.

I know he was torn as far as releasing a limited edition cigar for his first one post-General Cigar. I do appreciate the fact that he felt he had a superb cigar in the EP Carrillo Edicion Inaugural Encore and decided to release it and stand behind it. I love these cigars, probably my favorite from the trade show this year.

My review is complete,you can see it in the Review section......

Hope it's as good as what he used to create.

Very much in the ballpark, IMO- quite similar flavors. I need to try it again, though.

I have been on the fence about buying a box of these for a while now. I finally pulled the trigger tonight! I can't wait to get these and try them out!

[marge796]

I want to try one of these beauties, I love the LGC line.
