Description
96 points, Cigar Aficionado
The E.P. Carrillo Encore Celestial is a masterclass in balance and poise. As a 96-rated Toro, it offers a slightly longer and more voluminous smoking experience than the Majestic, allowing the tercio-aged tobaccos to unfurl their complexity slowly.
The smoke is notably "chewy" and buttery, delivering a palate of warm spices, charred oak, and sweet caramel. Because the tobacco is aged in palm bark bundles for two years, the typical Nicaraguan "bite" is replaced by a refined, silky texture. It is the ideal choice for an afternoon of contemplation, proving why the Carrillo family continues to dominate the global leaderboards.
