La Invicta - Churchill - Box of 25
La Invicta - Churchill - Box of 25
A box of 25 cigars, the connoisseur's choice for laying down and ageing.
The longest of the Honduran range.
La Invicta, “the undefeated”, was created by Hunters & Frankau in the 1940s, when wartime restrictions made Cuban cigars hard to obtain, and is still their own brand today. The Honduran range is hand rolled at the Tabacos de Oriente factory using long-filler leaf from Talanga and Jamastran, and is classed as light: subtle and delicate, ideal for new or occasional cigar smokers.
Connoisseurs' notes
Published reviewers commonly describe the Churchill as having light and smooth, with gentle wood and earth.
Summarised from Hunters & Frankau and specialist tobacconists' descriptions.
