Privada Storytelling
Legacy in Every Leaf
Cuba Aliados by E.P. Carrillo is a reinterpretation of a classic Cuban-American line, elevated in Honduran terroir and Carrillo craftsmanship. The blend embraces the heritage name while delivering a distinct character with cocoa sweetness, nutty depth, and earthy spice.
From the first draw, expect roasted cedar and peanut sweetness with a touch of raisin dark fruit. Halfway through, leather and black pepper emerge alongside vegetal cream and cocoa nuance. The finish is balanced and medium-bodied with walnut depth and tobacco polish.
This cigar honors a storied name. It doesn’t replicate it. It reinvents it.
