"Might want to skip this one"
This is not such a great Maduro. It didn't age well and the construction is poor. The burn is uneven. I've tasted a lot better. Filler is OK. There are better ones at this price.

"Very Tasty"
This is a good smoke. A wonderful aroma; a nutty, coffee, chocolatey flavor. Lots of smoke with a somewhat loose draw. Construction is a little soft but still holds up well. Overall very satisfying at an excellent price.

"Great cigar"
Gotta love these maduros........+1 on the flavor profile being just like the old "O's". Have had the Torpedo.....hoping that the Churchill is the same.

"Good taste, horrible construction"
I have to disagree with the majority here, at least regarding the construction. I do agree the taste, even the aroma, are surprisingly good for a bargain bundle. But the maduro wrappers are dry, flaky and awful. These are the only cigars I've ever had literally fall apart when I pick them up. Most are better than that, of course, but even the best of the maduro wrappers have been dry and no amount of time in my humi has brought them back to life. I highly recommend the Habano and Camaroon versions, but these maduros don't work for me.

"A wonderful surprise!"
Consistently fine smoke at a more than reasonable price...These have become a top favorite of mine since I tried them initially last year. Every time you reach for one you are assured of the same consistent quality.

"Excellent!!!"
I have smoked the Churchill and Torp in this new line from FSS. Both are outstanding. Start with a deep dark brown wrapper with a nice oily sheen. Wrap it around a very well constructed (as is firm and uniform)and tasty blend, and bingo, we have a winner. These cigars draw real well, and burn razor sharp. The flavor profile is rich, deep and layered, with various spice notes, chocolate, and even a hint of vanilla. They build in flavor as they are smoked down, without ever getting hot. Medium to medium plus in body and good balance. They do indeed remind me very much of a favorite cigar with an "O" in the name.Another winner from Mr. Zaretsky and Team Famous. Great job guys, Thx!Great customer service too, as always!
