Punch Churchills - 25 cigars

Punch Churchills - 25 cigars [7.0" x 47]

This size of this Punch follows the dictates of its brand, being easy to smoke, with medium-strong flavor and generous aroma. As a Churchill, it is far from the potency of a Cohiba or an H. Upmann, but it is a great Habano for both its texture and the fine finish of its wrapper. Excellent. It's one of the classics for the amateurs of this shape.

The second third and the final are marked by an additive woody taste, with hints of spiciness. Tasting in 1998: Earthy taste is dominant from the beginning till the end. The first third: smooth spiciness is combined with woody notes. After the second third the spicy taste is more present and the earthiness turns drier. The final is harsh and dry.

Final

Tasting in 2000: Special characteristics, It is not an aggressive Churchill, which makes it appreciated by a major part of amateurs. Connoisseurs also appreciate it, especially when it comes to the special characteristic earthiness, completed by the woody and spicy tastes. Tasting in 1998: The Punch Churchill is well balanced. Without beeing agressive, it surprises us by offering many special aromas usually provided by strong and agressive cigars.
