La Ligue des Divins owes its name to the origin of its tobaccos, some of which are cultivated at an altitude of up to 800m above sea level. The cigars have been aging since 2020. The Short Churchill showcases a balanced and smooth smoke from start to finish. A broad flavor profile is supported by the perfect amount of strength.
The cigar immediately brings aromas of nuts, herbs, and earth to the palate, followed by delicate spices and wood. Coffee and creamy leather notes are added later on, and the spices, mainly cinnamon, grow in intensity.

HOW ARE THE AWARDS MADE?
Those who scored the highest among the cigars tested during the year in blind tastings and reviews get re-selected. These products are then tested once again in a new blind tasting, which means not knowing what they are during the tasting. The test results are then compared, and the TOP 5 are created.
Since 2015, CigarsLover Magazine has focused on terroirs in order to give the right space to all the producing countries. From 2018, the TOP 5 were paired with the TOP 50, which lists the 50 best cigars without distinction of origin. Together with the Best Brands, the Best Buy, and the best Boutique Brands, this list will be published in CigarsLover Magazine issue #5.
