Description

Cigar Aficionado's #1 Cigar of the Year 2018 — the Encore is a statement cigar from Ernesto Perez-Carrillo Jr. A lustrous reddish-brown Nicaraguan Habano Rosado wrapper over a full-bodied Nicaraguan blend creates a full-strength smoke of extraordinary complexity. Pepper-forward with dark chocolate depth, it represents Carrillo at his most masterful.
