Legend Revisited in Leaf
Encore El Primero marks a return to E.P. Carrillo’s most iconic blend, elevated through refined aging and leaf selection. The Connecticut Broadleaf Maduro wrapper brings sweetness and weight; the Nicaraguan binder and fillers deliver classic Carrillo structure and spice. It’s a cigar built to honor history while forging new respect.
The experience opens in bold espresso and chocolate. Creamy notes of cedar and almond add dimension as cedar spice and baking sweetness rise in the midsection. The final act rounds out in leather and pepper growth with gentle spice and lingering nut and tobacco warmth.

Draw is firm but smooth. Burn stays stable. Smoke is thick and flavorful with radiant aroma from start to nub.
This is a blend rooted in tradition yet crafted with precision. El Primero earned its legacy—and here, it earns a second life. It belongs in Privada because it bridges power and polish, inviting deep focus without sacrificing approachability.
It is the comeback cigar done with elegance.
