The Factory Smokes lineup from Jonathan and Drew and friends has taken the cigar world by storm, and Factory Smokes Maduro Churchill is quickly becoming the favorite of the bunch. Made at the world-famous La Gran Fabrica Drew Estate in Nicaragua alongside all your favorite ultra-premium Drew Estate offerings, Factory Smokes Maduro uses a mixed filler blend of Indonesian tobacco, an Indonesian binder, and a dark, oily Maduro wrapper. It seems like whenever there is a series of bundle cigars released, the maduro variety always gets all the attention. Well, keeping with tradition, this is definitely the case with Factory Smokes Maduro.
Each bundle contains 25 cigars. Each cigar bears a Factory Smokes band, black with white letters, and a colored line denoting the blend. Maroon is the color for this Maduro variety, which happens to sport a rustic appearance and notably good construction for a value priced cigar. An easy draw offers plenty of rich, blue smoke, at first hitting the palate with a rich, earthy dose of raw tobacco. Soon after, hints of nutmeg, coffee, and cocoa emerge, along with a grassy undertone and some blasts of white pepper on the retrohale. Medium-bodied, Factory Smokes Maduro is quite refined for a stick using mixed fillers, as it is devoid of any unwanted harshness or foul flavor. The Churchill is a classic 7” x 50 vitola offering a more lengthy smoking experience.
This blend is perfect for beginners and more experienced smokers alike. Medium-bodied, the blend offers a fairly straight-forward flavor profile that is easy to enjoy. Like most maduro cigars, Factory Smokes Maduro pairs well with coffee or dark beer and makes a great morning cigar with which to start the day. Comparable in stature to other maduro sticks such as Flor de Oliva Maduro or Perdomo Fresco Maduro, this guy is not your typical bundle cigar. Whether you are introducing someone to the world of fine cigars or just want a good stick to enjoy while conducting the weekend cook-out, Factory Smokes Maduro Churchill by Drew Estate is an absolute no-brainer.
