My wife's uncle brought me back a box of 10 Churchills from his trip to Nicaragua. At first I was skeptical but after smoking one they are not half bad. A little time in the humidor would smooth out the edges and turn it into solid cigar. I thought they were more mild to medium not really full bodied as the OP mentioned but maybe that's because I tend to smoke more full and strong cigars compared to the milder ones. I wasn't impressed with the box and packaging(my first impression was "oh oh dog turd alert") but the cigar sure surprised me. I'm going to see if my wife's uncle can give me some background on them puppies.
