Quick Smoke: Villiger La Vencedora Churchill
8 Sep 2019
A couple times each week we’ll post a Quick Smoke: not quite a full review, just our brief verdict on a single cigar of “buy,†“hold,†or “sell.â€
Produced at Joya de Nicaragua’s factory, La Vencedora (Spanish for “the victor”) is a Nicaraguan puro that employs a dark, oily Habano Oscuro wrapper. It has developed nicely with over a year of aging, featuring bready notes, oak, and cocoa along with hints of citrus fruit, licorice, and smoked meats. Construction is excellent on the $10 medium- to full-bodied cigar.
Verdict =Â Buy.

I found the flavor profile to have plenty of strength without it being overpowering. It also boasts a complex flavor profile to at least start the cigar. Newer cigar smokers or those who prefer a lighter fare could enjoy this one without being blown away.
