IPCPR 2019 Spotlight: Esteban Carreras

Each year, Esteban Carreras has typically used the IPCPR Trade Show to launch its new release for that year. Esteban Carreras is also one of the few companies that doesn’t pre-announce what it will be releasing at the IPCPR Trade Show. This year was no exception as the Esteban Carreras Unforgiven made its debut at the 2019 IPCPR.

Unforgiven is a cigar that features an Ecuadorian Sumatra wrapper over Nicaraguan binder and fillers. What is unique for Esteban Carreras is that the cigar features tobaccos aged for two years in rum barrels. The finished cigars are then aged in the barrels. The company says this results in a fuller, richer cigar. It’s available in five sizes, one of them being 6 x 70 – marking Esteban Carreras first 70 ring gauge offering.
