Released in 2015, the Montecristo Churchills Añejado is part of Habanos' Añejado (Spanish for aged) program which consists in aging rolled, unbanded, cigars into undecorated boxes for a period of five years.
These cigars are then inspected, banded and packaged ready to ship. The interesting fact about this cuban cigar is that its vitola is completely new to the brand's range. This is the first and only Churchill sized cigar which sports the Montecristo band, which makes it an instant collectible.
This Julieta No. 2 vitola is particularly favoured by those who appreciate the evolution of a good cuban cigar. Its large, robust size rewards the smoker with developing flavours through the various thirds and it is particularly suited around the poker table.
The Romeo y Julieta Churchill Cigar and the H. Upmann Sir Winston Cigar are other fantastic cigars which also feature the Julieta No. 2 Vitola.
