Let's cut straight to this beefy 5⅛" x 58 Wide Churchill celebrating PDR's decade in the game. Box of 24 at $216 makes it about $9/stick - decent for a limited edition. That dark Ecuadorian Habano wrapper glistens like oiled mahogany, hiding 7-year-aged Dominican Piloto Cubano ligero. Don't be fooled by its box-press chill; it's packing medium-full heat.
Black pepper slaps your tongue awake, then settles into roasted coffee beans. Texture's thick like cold-press coffee sludge. Watch that pepper - 2/5 boxes have burn issues needing touch-ups.
Cocoa powder and caramel emerge, but the Nicaraguan Viso keeps it from going dessert-sweet. Smoke output doubles - perfect for Instagram clouds. Docking points? Slight tunneling in our test stick.
Leather and wet earth takeover. Strength creeps to 4/5. Pro tip: Nub it before the 1" mark unless you dig mineral bitterness. Pair with black coffee or risk flavor overload.
Rolled in PDR's Dominican Republic HQ using their signature triple-fermentation process. The Jalapa Viso gets 18-month tropical aging - you'll taste the volcanic soil minerals. Boxes feature unique QR codes tracing back to exact bales used.
