Crowned Heads Releases its Annual Limited Edition for Hawaii

Crowned Heads releases its annual limited edition for Hawaii and for the second time in its existence the Paniolo is made by Ernesto Perez Carrillo. The cigar is a 5¼x54 Robusto Extra that comes in boxes of 10 with only 400 boxes made. As for the blend, Jon Huber from Crowned Heads and Ernesto Perez Carrillo came up with a cigar that uses an Ecuadorian Sumatra wrapper over a Connecticut habano binder and fillers from the Dominican Republic and Nicaragua.

“We missed out on a 2021 Paniolo release due to the pandemic, so it was important to me that we come back this year with a bang,” said Jon Huber, co-founder of Crowned Heads, in a press release. “I’d reached out to Ernesto earlier this year and expressed interest in creating a ‘throwback blend’ to some of the cigars he was famous for in the 1990s because I was a fan of those hearty, robust blends. Once we nailed down the blend, I knew I wanted to utilize it and debut it to our family of supports in Hawaii at our Paniolo event which has become near and dear to my heart.”
