The Wide Churchills was introduced in 2010, and it has never lost its luster. It was the first Cuban cigar produced in the “Montesco” size, a cigar boasting a generous ring gauge compared to the Cuban production of prior years. Its sweetness and creaminess are remarkable, and the smoke is intense and balanced. The evolution is quite perceivable.
The sweetness appears from the first puffs, together with vegetal, citrus, and wood notes. Then, coffee and spices emerge. The finish is dominated by toasted, earthy, and green pepper aromas.

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.
