Crowned Heads Paniolo is making a comeback for the first time since 2019. Originally released in 2015, this Hawaii exclusive is made by Ernesto Perez-Carrillo and Tabacalera La Alianza. The Paniolo Especiale 2022 comes in one size, a robusto extra that measures 51/4 x 52
The uses an Ecuadorian Sumatra wrapper, Connecticut Habano binder, and fillers from Nicaragua and the Dominican Republic. Paniolo Especiale 2022 comes in boxes of 10 of which only 400 were made. Each cigar carries an MSRP of $11.00
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. 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 1990’s 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 supporters in Hawaii at our Paniolo event which has become near and dear to my heart.
