The E.P. Carrillo Pledge Firecracker is now shipping to United Firecracker retailers.
The 3.5 x 50 Firecracker ($7) features a Connecticut Habano wrapper, Ecuadorian binder and filler from Nicaragua. E.P. Firecracker. It comes in 20-count boxes and is produced at Tabacalera La Alianza S.A.
The Firecracker premiered in 2007 featuring a long piece of tobacco at the head shaped like a wick or ‘fuse,’ to capture its name. After a few years on the market, the limited release Firecrackers came to life as United Cigars collaborated with a new manufacturer every year to create a celebration cigar for our nation’s Independence Day. This year, United Cigars has partnered with E.P. Carrillo to create the Pledge Firecracker.
“Our Pledge is a fantastic blend for the United Firecracker collaboration,” Ernesto Perez-Carrillo of E.P. Carrillo said in a press release. “We have seen the United Firecracker and their limited releases grow in the marketplace so when we first discussed the project, we all knew it would be perfect.”
