RyJ Churchills Sampler

[Martindelmundo]

Hello Gents. I just came across the RyJ churchill sampler from the XII Festival del Habano that has a short churchills, wide churchills and churchills. I must say it's a beautiful presention, and the wide churchills in the humified tubo with a cigar punch is awsome. I'm a cigar geek and would like to know if anyone out there knows any info about this, and especially anything about the wide churchills. thanks guys.

The wide Churchill was released on the opening Monday night of this years Habanos Festival. Each guest was given a presentation pack as you have detailed. Nice touch.

As for the Wide Churchill itself, the general consensus was that it was a little too overhumidified to really get an understanding of what that cigar was all about in terms of flavour. It wasn't really the fault of HSA, a wet and humid period leading up to the Festival made storage conditions difficult.

Nice presentation.

I think these guys will have a chance to age and acclimate in my humidor. I don't want to smoke one because for me I know i'll never have the chance to buy another box of these being they where from the Festival del Habano, so that makes then a little bit unique. And it give a little more character to my humble collection.
