Quorum Maduro Churchill Cigar – Bundle of 10

The Quorum Maduro Churchill Cigar uses an Ecuadorian Maduro wrapper harvested from the uppermost tobacco leaves. This leaf undergoes extended fermentation, requiring careful humidity and temperature control during curing. A Nicaraguan binder secures long-filler tobaccos from Estelí and Jalapa regions, contributing to the cigar’s structural integrity.

Physical Specifications

Measuring 7 inches in length with a 48-ring gauge, the Quorum Maduro Churchill Cigar provides a 60-90 minute smoking duration. The Churchill format’s tapered head and open foot promote consistent combustion, while the dark oily wrapper indicates high leaf oil content from prolonged sun exposure.

Flavor Components

Initial draws reveal dominant notes of:

• Roasted coffee beans
• Bitter cocoa
• Black pepper

Mid-profile transitions introduce sweet tobacco and cedar wood tones. The final third emphasizes earthy flavors with a leather undertone, sustained by Nicaraguan ligero leaves in the filler blend.

Combustion Performance

The Quorum Maduro Churchill Cigar maintains a 1.5-2cm ash retention before shedding. Draw resistance measures 3-4 on a 10-point scale, requiring no relights when smoked at 60-second intervals. Smoke output averages 25% denser than standard maduro cigars due to the aged wrapper’s permeability.

Pairing Recommendations

Optimal pairings include:

• Espresso (80-85°C serving temperature)
• Aged bourbon (45% ABV or higher)
• Dark roast cocoa content chocolate (70%+)

Bundle packaging contains 10 cigars sealed in a cellulose sleeve with 69% humidity control. Store at 16-18°C for 6-12 month aging potential.
