The Davidoff Winston Churchill Toro Limited Edition 2021 comes in a hefty 6x52 Toro format, priced at $320 for 10 cigars. Wrapped in oily Ecuadorian Habano leaf, this 2021 release honors Churchill with upgraded Dominican binders and fillers blending Piloto Ligero with San Vicente tobaccos. Perfectly rolled in Davidoff's Dominican factory, it's the only cigar bearing the British PM's name and likeness.
Creamy cedar and cashew notes emerge through cool-drawing smoke, laced with white pepper sparkles. The honeyed sweetness keeps intensity restrained - smooth enough for morning coffee pairings.
Earthier tones develop as the burn passes the halfway mark. Leather and cocoa powder flavors blend with cinnamon spice, while the ash holds firm for 2-inch stretches. Retrohales reveal rose petal florals atypical for Dominican blends.
Espresso bitterness cuts through residual sweetness, boosted by umami-rich dark chocolate. Despite increased nicotine presence, the draw stays open with minimal tar buildup. Savory finish lingers like post-dinner espresso.
The triple cap unravels cleanly without wrapper tears. Volcanic soil-grown Habano wrapper maintains elasticity even in 60% humidity. Box-pressed cigars show slight flattening on two sides - intentional for improved combustion in this thicker ring gauge.
Requires frequent purges in final third to prevent bitterness. Pairs better with aged rum than whisky - the sweeter spirits complement rather than clash with its honeyed core. Leave 3-inch nub unless you enjoy intense nicotine buzzes.
