What is this product?
The Casa Carrillo La Historia Silk Toro is a 6 x 52 round premium cigar blended by Lissette Perez-Carrillo, daughter of master blender Ernesto Perez-Carrillo. Unlike the traditional box-pressed La Historia cigars, the Silk Toro introduces a classic round format that showcases a refined, balanced smoking experience.
At its core is a rare Ecuadorian Habano wrapper from Quevedo, fermented and aged for 18 months to develop its signature silky texture and reddish-brown appearance. The blend features a Nicaraguan Estelí binder and a sophisticated four-country filler combining tobaccos from Nicaragua (Estelí), the United States (Pennsylvania Broadleaf), Mexico (San Andrés), and the Dominican Republic (La Canela and Pelo de Oro). Handcrafted at Tabacalera La Alianza in the Dominican Republic, this medium-strength, medium-bodied cigar delivers full flavor with remarkable smoothness.
Why this product?
The La Historia Silk Toro offers layers of complexity wrapped in a creamy, approachable profile. Expect an inviting combination of cedar, earth, and subtle black pepper on the draw, evolving into notes of milk chocolate, roasted coffee, toasted wood, and nutmeg. A delicate caramel sweetness balances the blend, creating a smooth and satisfying finish that lingers just right.
What sets this cigar apart is the story behind it. Developed through conversations and feedback from women in the cigar community—enthusiasts, retailers, and industry professionals—La Historia Silk celebrates the growing influence of women in premium cigars. Designated production batches benefit Dress for Success Miami, an organization dedicated to helping women achieve economic independence. It's a cigar with purpose, crafted with intention, and built on 18 months of careful aging and multi-country blending expertise.
