Casa Carrillo proudly announces the release of the 4th Annual Pledge of Allegiance, a bold and patriotic limited-edition cigar that continues the brand’s tribute to American freedom while commemorating the nation’s upcoming 250th anniversary.
Featuring an entirely new blend, the 2026 Pledge of Allegiance Toro will be allocated exclusively to select premium retailers nationwide.
Inspired by the American Dream and the remarkable journey of master blender Ernesto Perez-Carrillo, Pledge of Allegiance 2026 represents far more than a unique cigar. It is a testament to resilience, passion, and perseverance—a tribute to the pursuit of opportunity and the enduring spirit of America.
From his beginnings in Cuba to building one of the world’s most respected premium cigar brands in the United States, Ernesto’s story embodies the determination and entrepreneurial spirit that define the American experience.
The 2026 Pledge of Allegiance Toro features a dark, rich Connecticut Habano wrapper, an Ecuadorian Connecticut binder, and a complex blend of Nicaraguan fillers sourced from Condega, Jalapa, ASP, and Estelí.
“As America celebrates its 250th anniversary, I reflect on the opportunities this country has given me and my family, said Ernesto Perez-Carrillo. I came to the United States with a dream and the belief that through hard work and perseverance, anything was possible. This country made that dream a reality. Pledge of Allegiance is my tribute to the American Dream and to the values that have inspired generations for 250 years. Like America itself, this blend brings together different elements to create something greater than the sum of its parts. It is a celebration of freedom, opportunity, and the enduring spirit that continues to define this nation.”
To further commemorate America’s 250th anniversary, Casa Carrillo will unveil an additional 250-box limited edition release featuring a distinct blend and vitola called Pledge of Allegiance Rockets. Details will be announced at a later date.
