Among his key releases are La Historia, Encore and Dusk.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the world of cigars, it’s hard to find a man more experienced—or more respected—than Ernesto Perez-Carrillo. He got his start in the cigar business making La Gloria Cubanas in a modest factory located in the heart of Little Havana, Miami’s Calle Ocho. Around 1990 he was selling standout, handmade cigars for less than $2 each. A newfound interest in cigars (and an article in a certain magazine) turned his company into a gem, and he couldn’t keep up with the demand. La Glorias went from curiosity to institution, and Perez-Carrillo expanded into the Dominican Republic, vastly expanding the production of La Gloria Cubana cigars.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLa Historia is decorated with various images, including his grandmother in a Pinar del Río tobacco field and his daughter in Miami. The cigar is as rich in body as it is in appearance. The Perez-Carrillos worked two years on this cigar, and it shows in the final product, which is finished with a luxurious, dark leaf of Mexican tobacco grown in the San Andrés Valley.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eErnesto Perez-Carrillo has created many great cigars in his 40-plus years in business. His La Historia is among his very best efforts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003eEPC La Historia E-III-\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e2014 No. 2 Cigar Of The Year, Cigar Aficionado Magazine\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"fusion-title-heading title-heading-center fusion-responsive-typography-calculated\" data-fontsize=\"54\" data-lineheight=\"62.64px\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003eEPC Encore Celestial-\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e2018 Cigar Of The Year – Cigar Aficionado Magazine\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"fusion-title-heading title-heading-center fusion-responsive-typography-calculated\" data-fontsize=\"54\" data-lineheight=\"62.64px\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003eEPC Encore Majestic-\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e2018 Cigar Of The Year – Cigar Aficionado Magazine\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"fusion-title-heading title-heading-center fusion-responsive-typography-calculated\" data-fontsize=\"54\" data-lineheight=\"62.64px\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003eEPC Pledge Prequel-\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003e2020 Cigar Of The Year – Cigar Aficionado Magazine, 98 Points – Cigar Aficionado\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003e \u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003eMagazine\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"fusion-title-heading title-heading-center fusion-responsive-typography-calculated\" data-fontsize=\"54\" data-lineheight=\"62.64px\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003eEPC New Wave Connecticut Brillante-\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e91 Rating – Cigar Aficionado Magazine\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch1 class=\"fusion-title-heading title-heading-center fusion-responsive-typography-calculated\" data-fontsize=\"54\" data-lineheight=\"62.64px\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"New Wave Smoke","offers":[{"title":"EPC La Historia E-III-SIZE: 6 7\/8 x 54","offer_id":49761243824405,"sku":null,"price":27.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"EPC Encore Celestial-SIZE: 6 1\/8 x 50","offer_id":49761243857173,"sku":null,"price":28.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"EPC Encore Majestic-SIZE: 5 3\/8 x 52","offer_id":49761243889941,"sku":null,"price":28.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"EPC Pledge Prequel-SIZE: 5 x 50","offer_id":49761243922709,"sku":null,"price":22.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"EPC New Wave Connecticut Brillante-SIZE: 5 x 50","offer_id":49761243955477,"sku":null,"price":20.49,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"EPC New Wave Connecticut Divinos-SIZE: 6 x 52","offer_id":49761243988245,"sku":null,"price":21.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0781\/0190\/5685\/files\/La-Historia-III-Single.jpg?v=1770237329","url":"https:\/\/newwavevapes.ca\/products\/epc-ernesto-perez-carrillo-nicaragua","provider":"New Wave Smoke","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
