My first Churchill;
Cuban, Gauge 47, Length 178mm, UK cost ?17.99
Out of humidor 70% Rh 22 `C, After Lunch, drinking water. 31`C
Appearance\construction; Very impressive handsome cigar, well packed, lovely tobacco\woody odour.

Pre draw was easy, leaving lots of flavour on the lips.
1\3; A smooth draw yielding plenty of cool flavoured rich smoke, ash fell at 1 inch which was repeated throughout the smoke. Predominant flavours of wood\leather with some creaminess.

2\3; Burn is very good, slow and true. Flavours becoming more complex with increasing creamy notes. Odour is. light and atractive.
3\3; Draw slightly firmer, and had to relight with 2 inches to go. flavour and strength as before but growing in complexity. Smoke still very cool, taken to just over an inch after 1 3\4 Hours.
Conclusion; Very enjoyable smoke, rich and complex, I was expecting a lot from this cigar and it delivered easily. It is expensive but a great experience, have 2 more which I will forget about for a while.
