Tonight I smoke the Romeo y Julieta Churchill which featured a nice triple cap and a firm even pack however little squishy at the foot other than that construction looks great with a lovely smooth wrapper with hardly any tooth and lovely tight seems the aroma of this stick is a nice honey and dry hay.
Wow what a cigar is all I can say from first light, amazing draw just a slight resistance and lots of lovely thick smoke, flavour wise lots of sweet desert like notes such as honey and almost a summer fruit sort of flavour, on the finish a really nice dried hay which is lasting well into the next draw
37 min in still lovely smoke output ash fell off in a solid chunk about an inch at a time which was a shame but other than that great burn line and the smoke is still nice and cool probably due to the size and distance the smoke has to travel. flavour wise slight pepper spice on the draw with a nice toasty coffee note lurking around the main flavours however is still that fruity floral note and the dry hay there's also a slight woody note coming through but it's not a ceder more like an oakey flavour the last few draws while writing this, there's also been a nice but very subtle caramel on the draw so far a real joy to smoke.
One hour twenty minuets in and entering final third the ash has been very flakey and not holding well also the cigar has gone very bitter now so hard to pick any draw flavours out, probably a young cigar which is a real shame as I was really enjoying the flavours coming out from the stick however overall I think it's a lovely cigar with lots of ageing potential and I would defiantly recommend this cigar or buying a box and leaving them to sit in a humidor to allow the tabbaco to settle.
