Feeling at Home
|
Winston Churchill Chequers
By Davidoff...This corona extra vitola has a light khaki wrapper, a solid feel,aromas of aged tobaccos and a slight mustiness, a touch of dryness and dust on the medium draw.
The flavors in the first half build slowly,oak and dry cedar,lightly musty on the palate,a slight sweetness,spicy aromas,very tasty. The second half shows vanilla and oaky notes,increasing intensity,caramel and herbal notes,aromas get big and very fragrant,a big finish,firm and lingering. The burn is very even to the nub,good construction,the cigar stays pleasant and enjoyable.The profile is medium to full bodied,with broad flavors of well aged tobaccos.Definately worth trying.....7 of 10 strength.17.5 of 20 overall... |
