Casa Carrillo Unveils La Historia Silk

Casa Carrillo proudly announces the release of La Historia Silk. Born from authentic conversations with women across the cigar industry—retailers, passionadas, and leaders.

Crafted exclusively in a 6 x 52 Toro format, La Historia Silk is a cigar designed for all smokers-seasoned passionados/passionadas and newcomers alike. It also marks the first round-format Perez-Carrillo cigar released in the U.S.

At the heart of Silk is an Ecuador Habano wrapper grown in Quevedo, carefully fermented and aged for over 18 months to achieve its character. It is paired with a Nicaragua Estelí binder and a filler blend that includes Nicaraguan Estelí, Philadelphia Broadleaf, Dominican La Canela, and Mexican San Andrés tobaccos—enhanced by the addition of Pelo de Oro from the Dominican Republic, a tobacco seldom cultivated due to its difficulty.

Produced in limited runs several times a year, La Historia Silk will be shipped in waves to select retailers nationwide and international partners, ensuring availability throughout the year while maintaining its exclusivity.

“Silk was born from listening,” said Lissette Perez-Carrillo, Co-Owner of Casa Carrillo. “It reflects the stories, experiences, and insights of women in our industry, while being crafted for all cigar lovers. Having it be the first release to carry the Casa Carrillo name on its foot band makes it even more meaningful—it’s a symbol of our evolution and the future we’re building.”

La Historia Silk will begin shipping next week to allocated retailers, with only 1,500 boxes of 10 cigars produced in the first run. The suggested retail price per cigar is $16.50.
