Our Master Tobacconist Experience

Our staff has long cherished the Romeo y Julieta Reserve as one of the most consistent and rewarding expressions in the Dominican lineup, and the Churchill consistently ranks among the most regal vitolas for its generous length and flawless layered evolution. The cold draw teases creamy cedar, nutty sweetness, and faint floral spice. Upon lighting, the first third opens with prominent creamy cedar, roasted almonds, cream, leather hints, and mild white pepper on the retrohale, delivering a smooth, balanced start with exceptional draw. Transitioning into the second third, the profile deepens beautifully with richer notes of dark cocoa, honey sweetness, toasted oak, and sustained nuttiness as the Dominican tobaccos reveal seamless layers. The final third builds smoothly to intensified leather, espresso-like boldness, woody earth, lingering sweet spice, and a long, refined finish that holds strong to the nub. This medium-full, 80 to 110 minute smoke offers impeccable burn, firm ash, and consistent layered sophistication throughout.
