The second annual release of E.P. Carrillo’s Pledge of Allegiance 2024 is set to ship to retailers in early June. This special release, limited to only 1,776 boxes, represents the culmination of the company’s dedication to excellence while serving as a tribute to the American spirit and dream.

“The Pledge of Allegiance 2024 is not just a cigar; it’s a representation of the American Dream that I had the privilege to live,” says Ernesto Perez-Carrillo. “This special blend has been crafted with a vision—to create a smoke that honors the journey every American, whether born in the USA or an immigrant, has taken or is still on. Last year’s reception to the release inspired me to relaunch a 2024 edition. So many people reached out and wrote to me to share their own stories about America—this is what Pledge of Allegiance 2024 stands for.”

The Pledge of Allegiance 2024 has a USA Connecticut Broadleaf wrapper, an Ecuadorian Connecticut binder, and a mix of USA, Nicaraguan, and Dominican-grown filler tobacco. This cigar is presented as a 6 x 54 box-pressed cigar and will be available in 10-count boxes. According to E.P. Carrillo, this is a medium to full-bodied smoke that starts with a hint of sweet spice that transitions to rich notes of cocoa, earth, and a subtle hint of leather. The suggested retail price per cigar is $22 before applicable taxes.

Pledge of Allegiance 2024 is inspired by the American dream and journey of E.P. Carrillo founder Ernesto Perez-Carrillo. This cigar serves as a tribute to the pursuit of dreams, embodied in Ernesto’s journey from his native Cuba to the U.S., where he built his award-winning premium cigar brand from scratch. The cigar’s band is representative of the bands on La Historia, Encore, Pledge, and Allegiance and has an American-inspired color themed. Each box is individually numbered from 1-1,776.
