Tasting notes

The EPC INCH Natural No. 70 Churchill Gigante Maduro presents itself with a seductive wrapper, showcasing a wrapper with shiny reflections and a silky texture. In hand, you will feel its imposing size of 177.8 mm (7") in length and 27.8 mm (1⅛") in diameter. Although the finish is not perfect, the cigar catches the eye with its generous appearance.

At the first olfactory contact, spicy aromas reveal themselves, accompanied by notes of dark chocolate and roasted coffee. Upon lighting, these scents become more complex, revealing additional nuances of nuts and dried fruits that enrich the experience. The overall profile offers a beautiful dynamic from the very first puffs, inviting further tasting.

On the palate, this cigar provides a harmonious development of flavors through its three thirds. The blend of aromas is quite coherent, although the evolution is marked by some inconsistencies in terms of burn. The spicy notes become more subtly present as you progress, offering a rich and satisfying tasting experience.

The finish is distinguished by a pleasant mouthfeel, with a slight bitterness stemming from the persistent chocolate notes. The balance between strength and sweetness is commendable, bringing a certain sophistication to the cigar, although one might expect a bit more precision. Its beautiful length makes it an excellent companion for a moment of relaxation.

For an ideal moment, consider enjoying this cigar during a quiet evening, paired with a good black coffee or a peaty whisky, to enhance its aromas while contrasting with its richness.
