From Ernesto Carrillo, the master blender behind the La Gloria Cubana Serie R (among other things) comes this big-gauge treat. The Inch series utilizes Dominican and Nicaraguan fillers and binder and a wrapper of Ecuadorian Sumatra which imparts a nutty, caramel-like flavor. The line derives its name from their large ring gauge; 1/64″ equals a ring gauge of 1, so the Inch #64 is exactly one inch in diameter. Regardless of whether or not you’re a fan of big cigars, you’ll find a lot to love in the Inch!
