compitaveggie Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 Is the new RYJ Churchill a Reserva or Gran Reserva? Seen both mentioned for this cigar but they are not the same thing. Jose Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scdalak Posted February 21, 2012 Author Share Posted February 21, 2012 Good Pickup, it does list it as a "Reserva" not Gran Reserva.. didnt even realize there were 2 options... I am almost happy it wont be a GR, maybe I can actually afford them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
