asmith Posted May 20, 2009 Share Posted May 20, 2009 This week we have ourselves a new venue to taste cigars. Warren has offered his fabulous deck as setting for this review and as Rob and I note, it is a step up from Ken's deck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KB24 Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 Thats a damn shame as I love these cigars. I like the smooth creamy aspect and the fact that spice isn't present. I still plan on purchasing a box in a few months. I did notice 2 bands on these. Is that new? -Patrick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Habanos2000 Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 I haven't had one in years and based on this review it sounds disappointing. Not what I would expect of a cigar named after such a great, strong personality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeromeroselli Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 So...... After watching this video, I've got to say... Is the only churchill performing at the moment the only one that's being discontinued? (Upmann) Stock up boys. Good review guys. Nice deck Warren. Rob your comedic talents truly deserve a forum larger than FOH on Youtube. Yentil joke.. wow, that is the definition of wit, or something to that effect Cheers Jeremy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joeypots Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 Looks like you guys missed it by 11 years. I had a '98 a few nights ago that was outrageous! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still plan on purchasing a box in a few months. I did notice 2 bands on these. Is that new?-Patrick Yes the RYJ (red label) is about year old. They are now double band's. I hate it. Look for boxes made before March 2008 for the standard gold band. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

El Presidente Posted May 27, 2009 Share Posted May 27, 2009 For the record....I am allergic to cats. My mother gave me two kittens for my 5th birthday. I was in hospital 20 minutes later. The fact she gives me the same present every year has concerned me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact she gives me the same present every year has concerned me those two poor cats would be about 45 years old now. think they might have had enough too.

Puros Y Vino Posted September 30, 2010 Share Posted September 30, 2010 Excellent review once again. I'm glad I'm not the only one who thinks the RyJ Churchills have lost a bit of their lustre. They used to be my favourite then one after the other, lacklustre flavours, plug ups, burn issues, etc made me shun them. I'm down to my last five and am hard pressed to find a reason to pick them over something else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
