I bought four of these to accompany me whilst on holiday in the south of france. What a beautiful way to relax of an evening, I only wish I'd taken more. The envy of may companions, lovely flavour, consistant burn and perfect draw, oh how I wish I was still there! I would gladly buy these again.

I am 19 and new to cigars. I have tried Monticristo's, H.Upmann's, Hamlet, Cohiba and Romeo y Julietta but these Churchill's have to be, by far the nicest, creamiest mild-medium cigars. I can understand why Winston Churchill chose this as his cigar of choice. Absolutely amazing cigar with a good whiskey or beer , sitting outside listening to music, reading and talking to friends. Buy at least one and savour the amazing aroma and flavour to this wonderful cigar.

I bought these on the basis that they would potentially be a shortened version of the full Churchill which is a beautiful cigar and smoke, the cigar it's self looks good with a well defined triple cap, upon lighting the draw was perfect but gradually got tighter, I think these cigars contains an excessive amount of tar that builds up in the cigar reducing the draw, the flavor is of toasted tobacco at first then a fruity citrus taste that ensues to the end, a big problem was severe uneven burning issues which could not be solved by rotating the cigar, I had to keep using my lighter to burn off the uneven rapper, I have smoked 3 of 10 and this has happened to all three cigars, I also think the tar coats the inside of your mouth thus reducing the ability to taste, the cigar also went out twice thus having to relight, to my mind there is no comparison to the full Churchill which I enjoy immensely, the ring gauge is also thicker 50 compered 47 and is a bit intimidating, will smoke another 3 or 4 then put another review on but at the moment I am not to overly impressed with these cigars

I lit another one of these magnificent cigars at precisely 5pm Sunday afternoon and immediately got flavor of sweet mellow tangy tobacco which lasted throughout the smoke, the draw was excellent and the aroma was intoxicating, my partner who is a non smoker complemented me on the smell saying this is what a true cigar should smell like, the strength stayed mild to medium until the second half when it picked up but never became overpowering, it took 1hr and 45 minutes for the film white ash to reach the Churchill band which I promptly removed then another 20 minutes to reach the Romeo band which I again removed, smoking this cigar over 2 1/4 hours was shear nectar and food for the soul I highly recommend this cigar whether it be for a special occasion or just to chill out for a couple of hours, you wont regret the experience, if I could afford them I would smoke these every day but on a more positive note they are £12 cheaper than the equivalent Cohiba Esplendidos, Churchill really knew his cigars when making this his favorite.

Bought this cigar which looked box pressed as one of three which I purchased Monday 16/04 using C.Gars FREEPOST offer first ever Ramon but alas will be my last, the draw was very good but all I got was hot pepper all the way through and non of the tastes that other reviewers state not my cup of tea will try the Punch Tres Petit Corona tomorrow and write a review on that

Just smoked one of these suburb cigars over 2 1/4 hours the draw was excellent using my punch cutter the first third was sweet liken to Port wine with that little bit of astringency the second third was like malt whiskey and the last was pepper without the heat, I rarely can smell the aroma of cigars when I smoke them but the aroma from this cigar was in abundance, an ideal cigar for any special occasion or if you have the odd 2 hours to spare
