Description

Large ring gauges are the defining idea behind EP Carrillo Inch, a collection created to give Ernesto Perez-Carrillo’s blending style a broader, fuller canvas. The line remains a distinct part of the Casa Carrillo portfolio and is built around oversized formats, with regular expressions that include Natural, Maduro, and Nicaragua.

Rather than treating size as novelty alone, the series pairs those substantial dimensions with carefully structured blends. The original Natural uses an Ecuadorian Sumatra wrapper over a Nicaraguan binder and Dominican and Nicaraguan fillers, while the Maduro shifts to a Broadleaf wrapper for a darker, richer profile. Inch Nicaragua takes the concept in a more Nicaraguan direction, giving the collection a stronger regional identity within the same big-ring format.

Across the line, EP Carrillo Inch is generally associated with medium to fuller flavor, steady body, and a profile designed to keep balance even at larger diameters. The series also earned critical notice, with Cigar Aficionado rating the INCH Natural No. 60 at 90 points, the INCH Maduro No. 62 at 90 points, and the INCH Nicaragua No. 62 at 91 points, reinforcing its reputation as more than a size-driven concept.

Relaxing

Really enjoyed the flavor and depth, paired nicely with a 14 year old dram of Oban

EP Carrillo Inch No. 58

More bang for the buck

You go and try to find a cigar of this size and stature by a manufacturer of this type of renown for a better price. It's just not out there so if you like the big boys the inch 58 is the way to go.

Really cool notes of chocolate and peanut butter on the finish. Got to be one of the more complex smokes I've ever tried in a big range like this.

Inch 70 Natural

I'm a big guy who enjoys a big cigar. As long as it's big on flavor then I'll sit and smoke for hours. Ernesto has yet to disappoint.

Right Size

I really stayed away from the inch line in the beginning because the hype was around some of the longer sticks. When I discovered this 5 in I was delighted. It's being one of my favorite EPC cigars ever since.

7*70

Tons of cigar from EPC for those of us who like to smoke on the extreme side. This is one heavy gauge and one heavy punch behind one iconic stick.

Ain't easy being Greasy

I find the tagline funny because the wrappers so oily that it looks greasy. It definitely set the tone for a full-bodied Masterpiece which lied in the fillers beneath. This is one example where you should judge the book by the cover.

4/5 ⭐ s

I really enjoyed the flavor and the strength which I found both to be medium plus but I shared an issue with another reviewer that I had some burn problems. There was a bit of a run in the beginning that didn't correct itself until about 2 inches in. Could have been a one time thing...idk
