Kristoff Ligero Maduro Churchill Review

Wrapper: Brazilian Maduro
Filler: Cuban-Seed Dominican & Nicaraguan Long-Filler
Price: $8.00 - $10.00

Being a huge fan of a few other Kristoff cigars, I figured it was time to give this one a shot. When I went cigar shopping on Father’s Day with my dad, this was one of the sticks I picked up. The weather was warm out when I smoked this cigar, so there was quite a bit of water and iced tea consumed to get through this Churchill.

The Brazilian wrapper on this cigar is fantastic. Its very dark, very oily, and radiates a coffee smell. The cigar has a nice pigtail cap, and a covered foot where the wrapper tobacco was left long. The cigar is very solid and very tightly wrapped.

Kristoff Criollo Matador Review

Wrapper: Nicaraguan Habano Criollo
Filler: Blend of Cuban-Seed Dominican and Nicaraguan long filler
Price: $8.00


This cigar has been intriguing to me for several reasons. The box it comes in looks very rustic, leading me to believe that the cigar is going to have an “old school” feel to it. Also, the color of the wrapper has a reddish tint to it. So when I had the opportunity to get my hand on a few, I went right for it, and decided that I had to write up a review on it.

The wrapper of this cigar was something to just take in. It smelled exceptionally sweet. The wrapper has several veins in it, but not one affected the burn at all. As soon as it touched the cigar to my lips, I could taste the flavors coming out, and the wrapper was very oily and all-around great.
