All About E.P. Carrillo Inch Cigars - the quintessential big ring gauge

Описание: The E.P. Carrillo INCH series is designed to be large and nothing but large. Big ring gauge cigars have flourished in popularity in recent years because they allow more tobacco for a truly unique blend. The INCH line hit the cigar market in 2012 and is one of the best-selling lines from E.P. Carrillo.

The INCH Natural was designed big for one reason - to have more tobacco! Released in 2012, the INCH line is still one of the best sellers for E.P. Carrillo Cigars, because larger ring gauges create a truly unique blend. This hefty cigar burns with a smoke that is sweet with maple syrup and toasted coconut with woody, oaky undertones.

No.60: Rated 90 by Cigar Aficionado. Very nice for a big ring gauge.
Blended specifically for hefty ring gauges.
Earnest flavor and full-bodied strength profile.
The tobacco he used for the INCH is the original Dominican Piloto seed.

Ernesto's favorite size is INCH Natural No. 62 because it has great spice for its size.

Inch Nicaragua is being made at Plasencia Cigars S.A. in Estelí, Nicaragua, some 1,100 miles away from Tabacalera La Alianza S.A. in Santiago, Dominican Republic.

Rolled for smokers who like all Nicaraguan cigars. Made in Nicaragua, 100% puro Nicaraguan.
Most of the cigar world credits Ernesto Perez-Carrillo with bringing the big ring gauge cigars to the industry.

The amount of tobacco and the quality of tobacco is what make it so unique.

Ernesto’s Notes:
He called the new smoke medium to full in body; a test smoke of one of the cigars showed a strong, peppery character with a prominent, almost caramel sweetness that balanced the spice.

Ernesto's favorite is INCH Nicaragua No. 60 because it has great balance for the size and blend.
