Cigar: San Cristobal Monumento (7.2 x 49)

Cost: $10.75

Drink: Coca-Cola (the best cola)

Appearance: This has a dark corojo wrapper on it. There were a couple small veins showing. The wrapper was flawless. I absolutely love the band on it. The appearance gets a 10/10 .

Taste of the cigar: This cigar is very, very complex. I picked up many different flavors. I picked up on a coffee taste, woodsy taste, cocoa, and a slight bit of spice. I remember the robusto size being much spicier, but this churchill is very well balanced. It is a very rich cigar.

Construction: Held an long ash. The draw was perfect. The cigar required only a few small touchups, but I blame this on the wind.

My smoking buddy Henry enjoying the cigar as well:

Strength: This was a medium-full bodied cigar.

Summary: This cigar was very, very good. I nubbed it. They are a little pricey to be an every day cigar, but I could see myself picking up a 5'er here and there. I give it a 9/10.
