Rather than reusing it immediately, the company allowed the tobacco to continue aging for nearly a decade in total.\n\nThe wrapper was grown in the Connecticut River Valley and sourced from Dunn \u0026amp; Foster. While it shares its origin with the Prequel, Pledge Purple is built as an entirely new blend.\n\nPledge Purple is offered in a 6 x 54 Toro. It combines the extended-aged Havana-seed Connecticut wrapper with a Mexican binder and Nicaraguan fillers from Estelí, Condega, and Ometepe.\n\nThe cigar is described as full strength, designed to highlight the evolved character of the wrapper while delivering balance and complexity. Casa Carrillo positions the release as a distinct expression within the Pledge line rather than a direct continuation of the Prequel.\n\nPledge Purple will be released as part of Casa Carrillo’s Premier Collection, with production limited to 3,500 boxes for the year.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003chr style=\"margin: 20px 0;\"\u003e\n\u003ch4 class=\"collapsible-button\" style=\"margin-bottom: 0;
