Review Notes:
pre light the aroma was great, even after lit the smoke let off had an inviting scent.
but the draw was horrible, i felt like i had to 3 puff it just to get a taste, and the taste was really of nothing, maybe i need to age a few and try it again, but i burned it all the way down and still the same tase/effect... but according to all these other reviews im wrong, so im gunna age the others and see... but make you own judgment

Review Notes:
First, the size listed here is incorrect, the Class Regent Churchill is a 48, not 52 ring gauge. While usually I prefer a traditional round cigar to a box press this stick is very elegant and attractive in its presentation. The classy band is nice also. The color is a rich, deep, milk chocolate brown. The pre-light aroma is also rich and a bit sweet. From the initial light the taste matches the appearace it is again rich, smooth, pleasantly sweet-spicy and medium on the side of full bodied. It compares somewhat to the Torano 1959 Exodus in flavor and appearance but a shade lighter in both regards. This is understandable as I believe that both are produced in the same factory. Firm medium grey ash, even burn, delicious to the nub. Highly recommended. A trememdous value as I was very lucky, getting them on an incredibly low bid on C.B. one day. As I write this today the winning bid on this Churchill is up to $27 for a 5 pack.

Review Notes:
I agree with Dr. Stankus in his description, but more on the medium side. Great construction with a great burn. This was aged and gifted to me by a close friend. I asked why he would buy a box and he changed my mind.

Review Notes:
It did improve with age. It tasted more refined and smooth with pleasant cedary, and leathery undertones. Got a kick of spice owards the last half. Burned evenly, with a grey ash. The draw was near perfect.

Review Notes:
A very nice looking box pressed smoke. It might need some time in the humidor, it tasted young, and harsh. The tobacco's need time to blend. Will wait 6 months, wait for update......
