Ernesto, when I was a young man working my first job as a lawyer in Miami, I had the privilege of meeting you. You handed me a cigar in your charming and gracious way, and I enjoyed it that night. Since then, your superb smokes have been a staple in my humidor. Thank you for the cigar, these videos and everything you have done for this craft. All the best!

[@EPCarrilloCigars]

Thank you

[@autry33]

Just the fact that Mr Carrillo makes time to communicate to regular people on social media and values feedback shows you the type of humble man he is. I'm an even bigger fan now and I have loved his cigars!

[@EPCarrilloCigars]

Thank you so much!

[@MrBikedrummer]

Hello Ernesto. I had the pleasure of meeting you at the First cigar BIG SMOKE in Washington DC. We were outside with 1,500 people. You were such a humble happy man! I still love the La Gloria cubana Serie R. I wish you good health and I'm very happy for your continued success!

[@EPCarrilloCigars]

Hi. Are you enjoying E.P. Carrillo? The Inch is a great option for big ring gauge lovers. Thanks for writing.

[@kimquintin6991]

Hello from Canada. I just wanted to thank you for some of the greatest cigars in the world.

[@EPCarrilloCigars]

Thank you for your support. It means a lot. Keep communicating with us about your experiences.

[@bruceburnett1584]

I am a huge fan of the Inch maduro sticks! E.P. Carillo makes a flippin' fantastic assortment of cigars...if you've never had one...you SHOULD!

[@EPCarrilloCigars]

That’s great to hear. Ernesto is a master of big ring gauges. He gets super happy when a fellow big ring gauge lover reaches out.

[@EPCarrilloCigars]

Hi. congratulations! you won the contest. Please email [e-mail] with your contact info. name address and email. thanks.

[@grassroots8347]

I tried your robusto dusk and it was amazing. Congratulations. I consider myself a Carrillo connoisseur.

[@EPCarrilloCigars]

Awesome

[@haylspa]

Thank you Ernesto this really helped! I bought a Humidor that regulates Temp and Humidity I have been taking some that I plan on trying out of their box & wrapper, but I am tempted to take them all out of the wrappers I did how ever take them all out of the Box's accept for one that is not opened, any ways GodBless

[@grassroots8347]

I tried your robusto disk and it was amazing

[@tjdinfl]

I hope to sit down with this wonderful guru one day in Miami. It would be worth the trip from Ft. Myers.

[@staghorn68]

Great and wise advice , thank you. Looking forward to trying one of your cigars in the near future.

[@Aaron-up8mk]

You make my favorite cigars. Keep up the hard work

[@EPCarrilloCigars]

Thank you. We will. 💪

[@EthanReviews123]

Great video, just received a bx of new wave coronas. I'm smoking one and letting the rest chill for a while.

[@EthanReviews123]

@David M I have only tried the corona size, of which I have a box, but I like them very much as morning and mid day cigars. I think with a year or two only they will only get better.

[@OfficalMrBlue]

New to the channel. Been smoking over a year now, and just came across some of your work with ANASTASIA with Caldwell, and I must say, WOW. Just had a 5er and the other day bought a box. Now I am looking more at your lines, and looking at trying all your stuff out. Hope to see more videos. Much love from Canada.

[@EPCarrilloCigars]

Hi. Thank you. Let us know which cigars from our lines you like. We love Canada!

[@M1KA27]

Such great advice! Only just recently started enjoying your cigars and I’m a Carillo fan for life. Encore Majestic and Pledge so far have been wonderful. Thank you

[@EPCarrilloCigars]

Thank you

[@alejandromatus7296]

Hi Ernesto! Great insight on keeping the maduros and naturals separate. Never occurred to me before. At the moment in keeping my Cubans and Nica/DR cigars separate. I'm gonna try this out! Thank you!

[@EPCarrilloCigars]

Great news. Glad to help. How did it work out?

[@larryfagan5068]

Thank you good advice

[@michaeljharden]

Thanks for the very in-depth video! So looking forward to trying the Pledge.

[@EPCarrilloCigars]

It’s comments like these that inspire me. Thanks again and let us know what you think about Pledge.

Great tips. I have a question about how to keep Natural & Maduros. Do they require different temp/hum of their own, or it's just to keep them separately because of their aromas? Can I keep everything at 65%Hum 70Temp (Since I have only one humidor) & then a week before smoking the cigar, I move it to a smaller sealed pack with humidity packs proper for that kind of cigar? Like 65 or 69%?

[@phillipberndt-r2c]

Good information

[@EPCarrilloCigars]

Thanks

[@Cigarsonthelake]

Great video

[@RoyAvila]

Thank you. Will you ever have you own brand of humidors??

[@EPCarrilloCigars]

Hi. I’ll stay focused on blending and keep striving to bring you the best cigars I can make.

[@tmatth236]

Great advice, thank you! Can't wait for the Pledge

[@EPCarrilloCigars]

Thank you. We are all looking forward to it.

[@agualotus]

Mr. Carrillo, im still a novice in the cigar world, what id like to find is a box of variety... a starter box, in which each cigar has a label giving instruction in the cigar world. As a novice, its dissappointing to spend any money on cigars (at the store) only to find they are all over priced garbage, and have no idea what to buy, what wrapper to look for, length, shape.

[@edgarlantigua]

Wonderful advise from a master

[@EPCarrilloCigars]

Thank you so much

[@zenaidacollado3701]

Dios bendiga cada días más a don hernesto es un empresarios muy bueno muchas bendiciones para usted

[@EPCarrilloCigars]

Muchas gracias. Bendiciones.

[@sdroger777]

Hi Ernesto, Love the encore majestic! Definitely my favorite cigar. With all these new types of humidors coming out(acrylic) do you see them better, worse, same as old faithful cedar humidors?

[@EPCarrilloCigars]

I like wood, better since they control the humidity of the cigar itself better acrylic can be used also but would keep for Conn shade cigars or to Revive very old cigars that are dry - Ernesto Perez-Carrillo

[@mike212916]

@@EPCarrilloCigars That's interesting because acrylic containers hold humidity the best so I would assume it would hold humidity inside the cigar the best.

[@denniswood231]

This man know!!

[@raulsanchez4493]

Is it better to keep your cigars in the plastic wrapper or do you expose the cigar to the humidor?

[@EPCarrilloCigars]

We like to take off the cellophane ❤️

[@charlesjoseph730]

Good video, you really don't need the music though. It kind of detracts from what he's saying.

[@mashtea818]

Don Ernesto I had one more question. I love your cigars and buy the same ones all the time. If I know I love a box and buy multiple boxes. Do I need to take the plastic wrapper off of the box? Or just set it with the wrapper on the box in my coolador. This is more of a box question and what to do with it being wrapped vrs unwrapped. Also thank you for the correct numbers on storing your cigars and Connecticuts.

[@EPCarrilloCigars]

We think you don’t have to take the plastic off. It’s fine to leave it on. Thanks for writing.

[@raser67]

Great video. In our Canadian climate the change of seasons can be a challenge when trying to keep humidity levels consistent. In the winter the air can be quite dry. Any suggestions?

[@EPCarrilloCigars]

True the winter can be rough on your cigars. First one needs to make sure that the humidor or storage device has a tight seal to keep the humidity inside the humidor. Second one needs to check the humidity level in the humidor more often to make sure the Rh is at the proper level and I would raise the requirement if it’s extra dry in the outside environment. If normally I want a 70% Rh and to get that I need one humidification device I would see if in the winter I need 2 to keep 70% Rh. Another option, which I did when I lived in a climate that had a dry winter, was I actually moved all my humidors to one room and humidified the whole room all winter long. You do not need to get a 70% Rh in the room but a higher Rh than the normal winter dry air helps. A good full room humidifier will do the trick. Why this works is because the relative Rh in the humidor, compared to the room’s Rh that the humidor is in, becomes closer and this leads to less humidity leakage from the humidor.

[@diversaurous]

Moving the humidors into one room and just humidifying that room is brilliant idea. Gracias por todo

[@mashtea818]

Hello Don Ernesto, thank you for your knowledge. I love La Historia E-III and wanted to know should we keep the cigars in the box or take out and put in the humidor as singles?

[@EPCarrilloCigars]

The best way to age them is to remove the cellophane and keep them in the humidor. If you will be carrying some with you to smoke soon, it’s ok to keep the cellophane on. But, for aging, it’s best to remove the cellophane and take out of box.

[@diversaurous]

Hola señor Carrillo, Does that recommendation to remove the cellophane for aging purposes apply to Nicaraguan, Dominican and Cuban cigars?

[@pushonline1568]

What’s the difference between maduro and natural? I have Arturo fluent añejos

[@vineranch8103]

Turn down the music please

[@modestoavila5598]

Hola Don Ernesto me gustaria saber si es recomendable guardar los cigarros en la bolsa plastica que vienen en el humidificador.

[@EPCarrilloCigars]

[@DainiusArt]
