TexCigars.Com provided me with a couple of these massively shaped smokes. I can't remember the last time I saw a churchill that was box pressed. I am sure they are out there, but I normally don't smoke this size. Nonetheless, I was very impressed with the shape, color and size of this large smoke. It's called Olor Del Cibao Tequila Cuban Seed and is sold exclusively at Texcigars.com.

The Olor Del Cibao Tequila Cuban Seed is constructed of Cuban seed Dominican long fillers that are aged in Jose Cuervo 1800 Tequila. It is important to note that the Jose Cuervo 1800 is a non-flavored tequila unlike Sauza which is used in the Acid cigars. After smoking the Olor Del Cibao, it does make a difference which tequila is used because I did not taste any tequila flavor in this smoke. Believe me, I tried to pick up on some type of tequila flavor but only noticed hints of honey. I also picked up on hints of leather but no tequila, which was fine with me because I am not a fan of flavored smokes. I would categorize the Olor Del Cibao Tequila as a flavored cigar. I truly enjoyed this new edition to the Olor Del Cibao line.

This box pressed churchill measures an impressive 7 x 54. It is constructed with Dominican long fillers and finished with a natural wrapper. The Olor Del Cibao Tequila Cuban Seed is a mild smoke that lit easy and maintained an even burn throughout the seven inches of tobacco. The draw was painless which made the experience much more pleasurable. These smokes run for about $109.99 for a box of 25. If you are looking for something different, give these guys a try. They may surprise you.
