Ya know, I got a box of the ab trilogy maduros, for under 50 bucks, they looked real nice, I have smoked two, one when I first got the box, horrible draw, could not finish it. so I decided to wait, let em rest in the humidor for about a month, tried another one today, and it was smokable, just barely. the draw is just too tight. the flavors are nice, the construction is good. I just hope the others in the box are smokable

[...] The Corojo produces nearly white ash, but it’s quite flaky. However, I didn’t experience any of the burn issues Brian at Stogie Review had almost a year ago. [...]

I’ve personally tried both this one and the Maduro.

The Corojo Churchill I found to be a decent smoke. First time I had the tri-pressed one and it was great. Now I hear they only make them in the normal churchill size.

It got a bit harsh near the end, but overall it was a medium to full bodied smoke.

I’ve tried the Maduro twice and found it’s taste not to my style, plus extremely bad burn issues.

Overall a great low budget cigar.

Nice review Brian, This pretty accurately reflected my experience with the Churchill. Solid smoke overall, especially for the price. The leather and dark chocolate were especially on point IMO, and I had a less-than-ideal, albeit self-correcting, burn line and ash. BTW Tower of Burn is looking great, makes for a nice visual enhancement to an already well-written review.

What’s funny is I just noticed Gary already commented on this review…I’m the office mate he mentioned. From his computer, around the world, and back again to my computer, I guess, haha. -HLT

Thanks guys, glad you like the new and improved Tower of Burn. It looks like the new format is a decided success.

No need to apologize MonkeyDan, everybody’s preferences are different. It’d be interesting if you tried them out at a different humidity. It might have an impact on the burn and the harshness. Also, I have the impression that if you rush this cigar, it’s not going to be kind to you. It’d be an interesting experiment, to compare notes on the same cigar at different humidities and different smoking speeds. Of course, you may not like the cigar at any humidity or speed, but you never know.
