Quick Smoke: Romeo y Julieta Wide Churchill (Cuban)

11 Feb 2012

Each Saturday and Sunday we’ll post a Quick Smoke: not quite a full review, just our brief verdict on a single cigar of “buy,” “hold,” or “sell.”

The legendary Romeo y Julieta Churchill was joined by the robusto-sized Short Churchill in 2006. In 2010, this third Churchill variation was added, measuring in at 5.5 inches long with a ring gauge of 55. Technically a “montesco” size, this Cuban puro is surprisingly well-constructed, with a golden wrapper, firm feel, and triple-cap. It’s a very flavorful, medium- to full-bodied smoke with flavors of roasted nut, coffee, and cedary wood. With deep flavor, balance, and excellent construction, it’s the best Cuban cigar I’ve smoked in awhile (including the vaunted Cohiba Behike).

Verdict = Buy.
