E.P. Carrillo Short Run 2023 is the third edition of the Short Run Series.
Unlike the others, this Short Run is being made in Honduras by Oscar Valladares Tobacco & Co. using an Ecuadorian habano binder over a Nicaraguan binder and Honduran and Nicaraguan tobaccos.
The results? Think notes of cedar, cocoa, and a subtle hint of spice creating a nuanced and sophisticated smoking experience. The medium to full-bodied profile ensures a satisfying smoke for aficionados seeking depth and complexity in their cigars. With this in mind, it’s no surprise Halfwheel rates it at 91. No doubt, this cigar is another winner for Ernesto and Oscar as well!

This exclusive release from Espinosa Cigars is a celebration of the rich cultural heritage and diversity of Cuba’s six historic provinces. Meticulously crafted and aged to perfection, this Toro promises a cigar aficionado’s journey through the heart of Cuban tradition.
Courtesy of CIGAR COOP: The ZDT is a Nicaraguan puro highlighted by a Nicaraguan Corojo wrapper. The Corojo wrapper is appropriate because Corojo has long been associated with the Pinar del Rio region. This is the first major Espinosa release to use the Corojo wrapper. The cigar was produced at AJ Fernandez’s San Lotano factory in Ocotal, Nicaragua. Director of Operations Hector Alfonso spearheaded the blend.
Earning a 90 rating, Cigar Coop emphatically states this cigar earns a Standard of Excellence designation.
