I like the price on this one. It's a really inexpensive cigar with the taste and looks of a 10 dollar cigar. It's a mild smoke that has enough intensity on flavor. The taste is a little earthy and woody that was on the spot. Some bitter after taste that just made it more interesting. It may be an acquired taste for some but for sure it's a good cigar for me.

A Dominican cigar, well made with good burn. A slightly grassy taste that suggests it might improve with age. But hell, for a $1 Churchill I'm not complaining.

The most affordable cigars by far. And by that I mean, very cheap cost but good quality smoke. The flavor was mild but it was there. I could taste it enough to appreciate it. A little woody herbal taste that I can't really describe, but definitely smokeable. Good everyday cigar that has a lot of potential.

If you're broke or really strapped for cash, these cigars would be perfect. They're not bad but they're not what you would be craving for if you're out for a great cigar. If you really want to smoke and can't afford the better ones, these would do fine. But if you're just looking for a bargain yet hoping for a great cigar, you should check out 5 Vegas. They're a little bit more expensive than these but still very cheap. Some costs 2 dollars, some 3. But believe me, they taste like 10 dollar cigars!

Bargain items are usually not of good quality. The same thing can be said of the Churchill, where its cheap and affordable value is mired by mediocre construction flavor. Everything about the cigar hints at being too raw for the picking, especially its grassy profile that may be too green to be smoked. The draw and burn are not that bad, but just like everything with the cigar, it could still be improved. Oh well, you get what you pay for.
