Haven't found any real opinions on this cigar. I recently made this my everyday cigar. It has a unique spiciness I've only tasted in a Padron. I really enjoy this extremely inexpensive cigar. Any opinions?

I like it pretty well. Starts out mild but as you smoke it, it tends to become more medium to me. It's a great cigar to smoke while playing poker (the Churchill) because it lasts so long. I ordered something like 36 (12 3-packs) a while back and can say that aging them a bit really improves the taste, as it does most cigars. Understand that they are made by the folks who make Astral. Probably true, since the construction is uniformly great and they consistently burn well. They're not an "occasion" cigar for me but I smoke one pretty regularly.

Arwings -
I was thinking about bidding for some of these myself. How's the draw?

I am thinking of bidding on this cigar also.
Besides the draw, I hope it's not one of those cigars with the tip sweetened, I really hate that, as it seems to take away from the tobacco flavor. It's strange that a lot of ads for cigars will not mention this. Anyway let me know.

So far the ones I've smoked have drawn very well. Burn is extremely even also. I bought them at a close-out. They came in those little humipaks of three and I got 12 of them (total of 36 cigars). Not the greatest cigar I've smoked but for the price, about a buck a stick or slightly less, I've had no complaints. These are the churchills and are a huge cigar, I'd estimate maybe 50 - 52 ring guage by maybe 7 1/2 - 8 inches long.

In all honesty, I believe there's an "s" missing in the name.

Someone please tell me these aren't bad smokes, I have a 10 pack coming from cbid this week.
I mean, for 30 cents a stick, who could pass it up?

I really like these cigars and I think their a steal on cbid. Now don't buy anymore or there won't be any left for me 🙂

Unfortunately for my budget, seems like lots of you guys are snapping up these little gems on CIBid. I got a few when they first appeared a few weeks ago but the winning bids are lots higher than the ones I got. I think hey are consistently good - not great, but good - for those times when a more premium stick is not in order.

Fortunately I've got enough of them sleeping in the coolerdor so I don't have to compete with those who are finding out about this great little secret.
