Trinidad (D.R.) Churchill

This cigar screams planet earth. The tastes were of grass, wood and that earthy dirt taste, but in a good way. I enjoyed it. I picked up a 5 pack from Cigarbid.com for $21. Definately worth the $4.25. I don't understand all the ho-hum toward this smoke, either.

As many have pointed out, these Dominicans are over priced. And they're not a patch on the Cubans of the same name. But I still think this is a fine Churchy--beautiful construction, perfect burn. The flavors tend toward the earthy and woody and the draw is fab. I got these on a buy 2, get one free deal...and even with a third off, they were in the $ 10 range. Still...

Good solid smoking med to full flavored stick. But at $9 bucks a stick? This smoke lacked a finishing quality. NO WAY I buy these at the current prices. I think Trinidad has spent a lot of $ in the marketing of these and included it in the price. Maybe...I'd buy a box if they were 1/2 the price. Maybe.

Wife bought me a box for Christmas. Great gift, good cigar. For the money this cigar lacks depth, it has subtle flavor, excellent construction, and a nice draw. I plan on letting these age for a couple more months to see what happens.

Is an acceptable $3.00 'gar. But I can buy good $3.00 'gars for $1.50, so why spend $10+? This brand has been hyped as much as 'The Flintstones' movie was, and is as good!

I really wanted to smoke this. They have gorgeous ads in the magazines...especially Cigar Aficianado. It was a nice looking cigar...no doubt. Lit great...smoked very nicely...taste was just ok. 🙁 VERY disappointing. I get better from my $4 and $5 smokes.

I bought this cigar thinking that it would be amazing, but it really was nothing special. Sure it was beautiful and smoked well, but the flavor was lacking and for almost $10, I wouldn't buy this cigar again.

Looks beautiful though, just so peppery and no depth. One dimensional. Not much flavor. Similar to La Flor Ligeros. Not my cup of tea.

Can't find a thing wrong with this. Has a special taste all it's own in my opinion, which I like. Will keep a box on hand.

This reminds me a lot of the Montecristos from the Dominican Republic: impeccable construction, decent flavor, but young and overpriced.
