INCH Maduro by E.P. Carrillo

The premium handmade INCH Maduro stays true to the top-quality ingredients and masterful construction of its brothers, but it’s all packed into one tiny torpedo. This stout, oily gem is crafted with Dominican and Nicaraguan long-fillers and dressed in a Connecticut Broadleaf wrapper--and its appearance is definitely a testament to the punch it packs. The flavor profile here was crazy powerful without being overwhelming. Roasted coffee, nuts, and a bevy of spices create a smoking bouquet at its core while a layer of succulent cream is drizzled over. I was captivated by how each draw was both super sweet and super peppery without the elements tripping over one another. It’s clear that sometimes less of an Inch is more.
