E.P. Carrillo, a pioneer in large ring gauge cigars, launched the INCH line in 2012 to cater to enthusiasts craving a slow-burning, bold smoke. The name "INCH" reflects the cigar’s impressive 64 ring gauge, equivalent to one inch in diameter, with sizes ranging from 60 to 70. Available in INCH Maduro, INCH Natural and INCH Nicaragua blends, the line later expanded with additional variants. The INCH Maduro features a dark, oily Connecticut Broadleaf wrapper, a Nicaraguan binder, and Dominican fillers, delivering gritty flavors of coffee, earth, and cedar. Alternatively, the INCH Natural boasts an Ecuadorian Sumatra wrapper with Nicaraguan Viso and Dominican Piloto Cubano, Corojo, and Criollo '98 long-fillers, offering cocoa, spice, and a creamy finish. Both blends are medium-full in strength, earning a 90-rating from Cigar Aficionado in August 2016. Crafted by Ernesto Perez Carrillo, the mastermind behind La Gloria Cubana, the INCH line reflects his commitment to consumer demands and premium quality, making it a favorite among boutique cigar enthusiasts seeking a robust, slow-burning experience.
