Ritch Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 Is it just me, or is the R&J Taco just a R&J Churchill with an extra band? Same size and same flavour to me.. Is there anything different to you chaps? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hookmaker Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 No, The Taco is a EL meaning minimum 2 years more ageing on the (at least) wrappers. All my 3 boxes are dark brown/black and oily - very different from the C's. And the smell is amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cookj1 Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 Taco is 49 x 168. Churchills are 47 x 178. They’re close in size but not the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rabidraccoon Posted January 14, 2019 Share Posted January 14, 2019 I find the Tacos to be quite different in flavor - more earthy and aromatic spice flavors and much less fruit than the Churchills. Love both though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
awkwardPause Posted January 14, 2019 Share Posted January 14, 2019 Great idea for a comparison! For me, I get a very strong cumin/cilantro/ground beef flavor from the Tacos. Some hearty corn tortilla notes on the fringes as well that play off the savory beef notes just wonderfully. Love them! A true staple around our home. As for the RyJ Churchills - these tend to exhibit a refined nutty/fruity/cedary flavor profile with a nice floral component in the aroma. Medium-full body with a buttery mouth-coating smoke. So, to summarize - different experiences altogether from a sensory perspective, IMHO. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
