The new EPC Pledge of Allegiance is here! Featuring a new blend in two limited-edition vitolas. The 2025 version uses a Connecticut broadleaf wrapper, Ecuadorian habano binder, and fillers from Nicaragua’s Condega and Jalapa regions, along with Pennsylvania-grown P41 and a Havana-seed leaf from Connecticut.

Described by Ernesto Perez-Carrillo Jr. as a tribute to the strength and diversity of the American spirit, the release reflects his journey from Cuba to the U.S. and the founding of his world-renowned cigar brand. The toro will have 1,776 numbered boxes symbolizing the birth year of the U.S., while the more exclusive Rockets figurado (6 3/8 x 58) will have just 249 boxes to mark the nation’s 249th birthday.

 Inspired by the American dream, the line merges two of Carrillo’s existing blends—Pledge and Allegiance.
