A fine Double Corona should reward patience, giving its tobaccos sufficient time to reveal their character without losing the balance that defines a thoughtfully constructed blend. TheE.P. Carrillo Allegiance Wingman Double Corona approaches that ideal through an unusual partnership: Ernesto Perez-Carrillo's blending expertise paired with the Nicaraguan tobacco resources and manufacturing traditions of Oliva Cigar Co. The result is a cigar that carries the unmistakable sensibility of Perez-Carrillo while expressing the character of a different cigar-making house.
Measuring6⅞" x 54, the box-pressed Wingman combines an Ecuadorian Sumatra-seed wrapper with Nicaraguan binder and long-filler tobaccos. The Sumatra wrapper introduces a fragrant, subtly sweet dimension that complements the blend's underlying earthiness and spice. Its extended length encourages a leisurely progression, with impressions of seasoned wood, toasted nuts, dark coffee, and gentle pepper developing across a medium-to-full-bodied profile. The generous proportions provide ample opportunity to appreciate the relationship between the wrapper's aromatic qualities and the richness of the Nicaraguan filler.
The Wingman is particularly well suited to experienced smokers who appreciate a substantial cigar that favors refinement over brute strength.Set aside an unhurried hour or more for this distinguished collaboration, and experience the Allegiance blend in its most expansive original format.
