St. Charles by Torano

Carlos Torano's St. Charles line was originally designed as a top-flight smoke. Near the end of the cigar boom, it slowly dropped off the market; due to an overwhelming influx of new brands that flooded the marketplace. This sent this brand, along with several hundred other brands to the big ashtray in the sky. This Churchill hails from one of the finest cigar tobacco-growing regions in the world - the luscious green valley of Cibao in the Dominican Republic. The St. Charles cigar factory is located in the small town of Navarette and produces many well known brands sold throughout the US. This St. Charles Churchill is a mild to medium body smoke with a rich flavor. One very interesting thing about this cigar is the subtle taste of brandy. While they are being aged in the cedar lined rooms, 100 year old brandy is imbued to give the cigar a very subtle taste. Look for an aroma to be a combination of creamy nutmeg, black pepper and a touch of chocolate. Expect an almost creamy, chocolaty taste to complement the robust tobacco flavor.
