La Tradition Cubana Churchill review

[Arnie]

This is one of my favorite mild cigars.

Size: 7x50
Wrapper: Ecuador Connecticut Shade
Price: About 4 bucks
Strength: Mild/medium
Draw: Perfect, with just a slight resistance
Beverage: Cuban Style Cafe Con Leche

A fabulous looking cigar wrapped in a silky, gold-colored Ecuador Ct leaf with no veins and little crystals of oil on the surface. The box I have is a couple years old now and they have aged nicely.
I toasted the foot a little with my trusty Jet Light and in no time it took off. The first couple puffs hit me with a coffee flavor that faded into creamy, toasty pecan goodness. These fellas are always as smooth as satin, absolutely no harshness or off flavors, ever.
The burn started a little uneven but quickly corrected and burned straight the rest of the way.
As the cigar burned I was struck by the consistency of the flavors. It stays the same all the way through. Half way down I looked at it and marveled: what a great cigar! This is true relaxation!
No spice, no earth, no leather.
If you have the urge for a lazy-day smoke that will complement your daydreams this is it. I love these cigars, they hit the spot every time.

Coffee and Toasted Pecan ... unreal! I'm heading to the cigar store tonight and picking two of these up. One to smoke now and one to age for a few years

Cheers,
Brad

Brad, I have never seen these in a store.
I see that you are in Westminster, I am in Louisville. If you would like, we could meet somewhere for a smoke, I'll bring a couple LTC's. PM me and we'll talk about a time and place.

so, a fully mild to smooth smoke.
