The brand new Romeo y Julieta Wide Churchill arrives in Mount Street today and if you love it as much as I did you should beat a path to the store to try it. The new cigar is a real mouthful at a chunky 55 ring gauge. At 5¼ inches it’s a great hour and a half’s smoke.

The cut was very moist and spongy and the draw was fantastic. It is a very smooth and cultured smoke, creating a long strong ash. It is tasty without being overpowering and the last third was pure honey.

In boxes of ten and 25 this deserves to become a real classic and I am struggling to remember when I enjoyed a cigar more.
