Review Notes: My experience with these are from 02. What a nice ly constructed cigar. everything was right about this stick. From the cigar band to the color of the wrapper this screams class smoke. I wasn't disappointed when I clipped it and the cold draw flavor was prominent and pleasant. I stayed on the cold draw for a wee bit just to sense what the lit leaf will be like. After lighting it the pleasure just increased. The smoke taste was very relaxing. Cocoa perhaps. Leathery for sure. The burn was even and the ash was long. I will go out of my way to smoke a HDM Churchill. Tom
