I have a nice box of MUO Monte 4 that I believe you said were from El Laguito. Very consistent and nicely rolled.....so far.

Would Winston dig the 58 RG?  That’s huge man!  I ate my words big time with the Mag 56 though.  With any luck I won’t get to try these and be tempted!

Maybe so, nice story and nickname.

But I have seen these being rolled and stored at another factory only and never heard of them being anywhere near El Laguito.

Great cigar and a dream to smoke.

Wow, not only are the cigars getting pornographic...........but the nicknames of the people making them too!?

60-85 - is standard factory norm for working day of roller in similar format.

At the same time, Grand Churchills does not require the skill of the highest category roller.

Deep Throat confirms your story @Elpresidente

Gran Churchill was transferred to El Laguito for rolling like a month ago.

And I would think that for this Vitola, like for similar exclusive ones like the Roques etc., they would use Cat 9 rollers like "Melon"...

With a name like Melon you know he's got to be bald. Or he has a huge gut.  He rolls them on his stomach. ?

Or maybe he looks like Rodney Dangerfield.

I remember an anecdote:
- Waiter! Why do I have hair in the cutlet.
"You see, sir, we have the best cook in town, but he's one-armed-he makes cutlets on his chest, and his chest is hairy...
Wild laughter of the client is distributed:
- I can't even imagine what is he using for filling with mincmeat inside the pepper!

Rob...the ones that I have are 7 1/2 X 56, I don't think they are anywhere close to a 58RG. John

He may have had a slip of the thumb.

That's why it's called "Rumours" :rotfl:

Romeo Grand Churchill is currently being rolled at El Laguito. 

58 X 192

The single roller is nicknamed Melon and he is knocking out 75-80 per day.
