I got word yesterday that our good friend Ernesto Perez Carrillo was going to be in my neck of the woods at the Gaithersburg location of Davidus Cigars. We last spoke to Ernesto back at the 2010 IPCPR in New Orleans so it was a great opportunity to spend a few minutes catching up with him. Ernesto and his family are making some of the best cigars out there. The Short Run made our Top 10 Lists for 2010. What does EP Carrillo have in store for 2011? Find out in the video below (about 5 minutes).
I adored the Short Run 2009, but wasn’t a huge fan of the Inaugural 2009. He’s going to be visiting my local B&M in a couple weeks as well; looking forward to trying EPC’s new offerings.
I look forward to the Connecticut wrapper! I am still upset that the Inaugural 2009 seems to have gotten stronger after letting them sit for a while 🙁
Or you’ve gotten weaker. I still love the Inaugural 2009, but it’s a cigar that deserves a fresh palate. It just isn’t going to be as good when paired with strong food and drink.
I’m really looking forward to the new EPC smokes, but that almost goes without saying.
