At the 2014 IPCPR Trade Show, E.P. Carrillo added two line extensions to its E-Stunner line.  As we previously reported, the E-Stunner Limousin introduced a 6 x 60 vitola into the line.  The company is now also adding a 6 x 52 toro-sized vitola known as the E-Stunner Taurus.  These two will be the longest cigars in the line.

When the E-Stunner line was introduced last year, it was designed to be a full-bodied, full-flavored cigar.  It also introduced new packaging that was meant to be contemporary.  The line very much has a western theme associated with it.  Each of the vitola names have a western / cattle theme associated with it.

Ernesto Perez-Carrillo’ Jr’s children, Ernesto III and Lissette played a key role in developing the blend.  The wrapper features a higher priming Sumatra wrapper. Instead of an 80/20 ratio of Dominican to Nicaraguan filler normally found in the E.P. Carrillo blends, this incorporates a 50/50 plot.

At a glance, here is a look at the E-Stunner line.
