E.P. Carillo Inch Maduro

Hand-rolled with a Connecticut Broadleaf wrapper over Ecuadorian Sumatra and fillers from Nicaragua and the Dominican Republic, the Inch Maduro proves Ernesto Perez-Carrillo's mastery of the large ring gauge format. Built for 60+ ring vitolas, the blend isn't just bigger - it's optimized for the cooler, slower burn that massive cigars demand. The dark, oily wrapper sets the stage for full flavor without ever crossing into harsh territory.

Expect deep notes of espresso, dark chocolate, and damp earth, all lifted by the natural sweetness Broadleaf brings to the table. The smoke volume is immense, and the medium-to-full-bodied profile holds steady from the first puff to the last. The Inch Maduro is a two-hour commitment - perfect for long sessions on the patio, road trips, or anytime you need a cigar that won't quit. For smokers who love big ring gauges but refuse to sacrifice complexity, this one's the benchmark. Stock your humidor and settle in for the long haul.
