E.P. Carrillo Cigars INCH

Inch Maduro by E.P. Carrillo No. 62

Cigar Aficionado · Oct 1, 2025

The draw of this very thick, near-black cigar is open and easy, though the burn is a bit wavy. Notes of anise, coffee bean and spice play off the powerful, leathery, earthy core. The finish is nutty.

E.P. Carrillo INCH Ringmaster 5 3/8

Halfwheel · Mar 29, 2021 · Nov. 5, 2018

The size of the E.P. Carrillo INCH Ringmaster 5 3/8 is still too large to fit comfortably in my mouth and the strength is still firmly in the medium range, but those are pretty much the only major things that remain the same between the samples I smoked 27 months ago and the aged version. During that aforementioned time period the profile of the cigar has changed completely: what once was a blend full of a fairly linear combination of sweetness and sourdough bread flavors is now significantly more complex, with creamy cashews dominating the palate and a distinct wasabi flavor taking the top spot on the finish. In the end, this is a great example of how aging can completely change a cigar for the better in any number of ways.

EP Carrillo Inch The Ringmaster

The Cigar Authority · Nov 13, 2018

The ring gauge of a cigar is based on fractions of an inch, with a full inch being 64/64. That is the basis of the INCH Series and this is the Ringmaster.

Holt's Staff Reviews · Aug 20, 2020

I’m reviewing E.P. Carrillo Inch in the No. 60, a chunky 5.875 x 60 format. E.P. Carrillo is named for brand founder and celebrated cigarmaker Ernesto Perez-Carrillo. He is best known as the man behind La Gloria Cubana. Perez-Carrillo pioneered a number of big ring gauge cigars when he launched La Gloria Cubana Serie R during the Cigar Boom of the 1990s. He found much success with La Gloria prior to selling the brand to tobacco giant Swedish Match in 1999. La Gloria Cubana was folded into the portfolio of General Cigar Company alongside other name brands, including Macanudo and Cohiba.

E.P. Carrillo INCH Natural No. 60

Developing Palates · Jan 8, 2021 · August 2012

The E.P. Carrillo INCH Natural No. 60 had a flavor profile that was pretty linear with just a few changes. It was definitely a heavy oak and earth influence. I'd prefer a bit more to the flavor profile, but for those that are fans of the flavors I've described, you'll get a full dose of them here and find something you enjoy. The cigar is a very slow smoker, so there is some value there.
