Tasting notes

The Mustique Red Churchill, a cigar originating from Ecuador, presents itself in a beautiful format of 177.8 mm (7") in length and 19.8 mm (¾") in diameter. Its Ecuadorian wrapper, smooth and slightly shiny, captivates with its brown hues. Upon handling, you will appreciate the pleasant texture of the leaf, indicative of careful craftsmanship. The overall presentation, meticulously done down to the band adorned with a striking red, does not go unnoticed.

Upon the first draw, the cigar reveals woody aromas that are pleasantly mild. After lighting, these notes evolve into a nutty nuance, accompanied by a subtle hint of spices that develops throughout the tasting. The complexity of the aromas gives way to a enveloping sweetness, flitting between each draw.

On the palate, the Mustique Red Churchill offers a balanced experience across three distinct thirds. The first third is marked by flavors of sugar and herbs, followed by a more pronounced intensity in the second third with the emergence of more spicy notes. The finish reveals a sweetness, always blending earthy elements with a generously aromatic character, never becoming aggressive.

The sensation on the finish is soft and pleasant, with a medium length that invites reflection on the balance between strength and sweetness. The cigar does not present any bitter notes, which is a considerable asset for those who enjoy a light yet rich smoke.

Ideal for a moment of relaxation, this cigar is perfectly enjoyed alongside a glass of chilled white wine or a light black tea during a quiet evening with friends, allowing you to explore its multiple facets without being overwhelmed by overly powerful flavors.
