Privada Storytelling
Inch Maduro is E.P. Carrillo on his own terms—a bold, unapologetic cigar that refuses to conform. Named for its massive 8-inch stature, this toro delivers flavor heavyweight with unexpected finesse. Crafted by Ernesto Carrillo and aged for harmony, it’s a smoke that commands attention but rewards those who engage deeply. In Privada, we treasure cigars with presence—where form and flavor walk the same edge. Inch Maduro walks it with swagger.
Flavor Journey
From first light, Inch Maduro greets you with bold espresso and dark chocolate layered over rich leather and black pepper. As the smoke progresses, toasted walnut and earthy cedar emerge, brightening the profile while molasses and baking spice weave through the retrohale. Midway, a hint of dried fruit and cinnamon softens the edges, giving way to a warming, nuanced finish. The final third is a mature take on power: balanced strength, polished depth, and a clean bittersweet close. Smoking Inch is like running a marathon—big, sustained, rewarding.
Why It Belongs in Privada
Because Inch Maduro is strength with sophistication. It doesn’t just fill a seat in the lineup—it owns it. Crafted by Carrillo’s blending skill and aged for maturity, it stands as a testament to boutique boldness. In Privada, we value cigars that elevate strength beyond power, where depth meets polish. This is Inch on its terms—authentic, brave, unforgettable.
