We are elated to announce that the 2020 Number One Cigar of the Year from Cigar Aficionado is finally available at JR! The Pledge is just another top-notch, delicious smoke made by master blender Ernesto Perez Carrillo, who’s list of iconic cigars seems to keep growing year after year!

This 98-rated smoke is the cigar featured on our latest episode of the Long Ash Podcast. Both Nick and Greg smoked the same exact size (the Prequel) that won the coveted number one spot on last year’s Cigar of the Year list.

This 5 x 50 medium to full-bodied smoke is cloaked in a dark, oily Connecticut Habano wrapper, while featuring Ecuadorian tobacco in the binder and tobaccos from Nicaragua for the filler.

Some flavor notes you’ll detect while smoking the Pledge by EP Carrillo are leather, earth, black cherry, toast, black pepper, and espresso, that would pair perfectly with a refreshing Sangria. Although sold out for now, the Pledge by EP Carrillo also comes in a 6 x 52 size called “Sojourn”.

To round out the episode, we gathered questions asked by our fans from YouTube for Nick to answer. Tune in to hear some of the great insight Nick was able to provide from all the different questions asked from all over the globe.
