Wrapper: Havana Seed Connecticut from Dunn & Foster Farms
Pledge Purple shares more than its name with the original Pledge. According to Casa Carrillo, brand owner and master blender Ernesto Perez-Carrillo set aside some of the wrapper tobacco that he used to create the original Pledge and continued to age it in his factory. The same inky-hued leaf that enshrouds Pledge Purple is the very same Havana-seed Connecticut wrapper featured on the first run of Pledge cigars in 2020. The company says that the leaf, sourced from Connecticut tobacco grower Dunn & Foster, is now nearly a decade old.
