I am new to the world of cigars - this is my first review!
The R&J Petit Churchill is the first cigar I have smoked that wasn't the regular corona shape; perhaps the slightly larger gauge was the reason I found this one a little more difficult to get a good light. Once lit it burnt well, I think I only had to relight twice, both times were really just precautionary re-heats.
I enjoyed the pre-light draw, a lot of flavour and a very easy pull - Although I didn't do this on my previous smokes, so I have nothing to compare it to!

Romeo y Julieta Petit Julietas Cigar - 1 Single

Romeo y Julieta No. 3 Tubed Cigar - 1 Single
by Alexander

Romeo y Julieta Petit Churchill Cigar - 1 Single
