In a newsletter sent to consumers, E.P. Carrillo has announced a new line, Capa de Sol.

E.P. Carrillo Capa de Sol

While little is known about the cigar, the company did show off a new band that follows in the same packaging style as the Short Run 2016. The email describes the cigar as being part of the Elite Series, a series that includes the Selección Oscuro and New Wave Reserva.

Capa de Sol translates into wrapper of sun, a strong indication the cigar will use some sort of sun grown wrapper.

A representative for E.P. Carrillo was unavailable to immediately comment.
