Black Label Core Line Last Rites Robusto Real

The Black Label Lawless Churchill combines the characteristic spiciness of the Lawless range with a long and comparatively slender 7x48 format. The reddish-brown Ecuador Habano Rosado wrapper encloses a Nicaraguan binder and an all-Nicaraguan filler. The cigar is manufactured in Estelí, Nicaragua, at the Fábrica Oveja Negra. In terms of flavour, it offers a dark yet balanced profile featuring chocolate, leather and roasted nuts. Coffee, earth, pepper and subtle spices round out the profile. The Churchill format allows for a long, smooth development and showcases the spicier characteristics of the Rosado wrapper particularly elegantly.

Black Label Lawless Churchill in the classic 7×48 format

Measuring approximately 178 millimetres in length, 19 millimetres in diameter and with a ring gauge of 48, the Churchill boasts elegant proportions. Compared to the voluminous Gran Toro, the focus is more on the wrapper, allowing the spice and aromatic nuances to come through particularly well. The long format encourages a leisurely smoking pace and offers ample time for a continuous development. Cigar Aficionado awarded this very vitola 93 points and classified its strength as medium to full-bodied.

Dark chocolate, leather and roasted nuts

Particularly characteristic is the combination of dark and malty chocolate. It forms a smooth, robust foundation and is accompanied by savoury leather and roasted peanuts. Complementing these are the typical Lawless flavours of espresso, cocoa and earth. Black pepper and cinnamon provide a spicy contrast, whilst dried fruits contribute a delicate natural sweetness. Thanks to the slimmer ring gauge, the individual components come across as clearly defined and develop step by step.

Long-lasting enjoyment with great aromatic depth

The Churchill is aimed at connoisseurs seeking a longer cigar with a distinctive yet balanced flavour profile. Its Nicaraguan filler provides body and structure, whilst the Ecuador Habano Rosado wrapper adds spice and a subtle sweetness. Towards the end in particular, notes of espresso, dark cocoa and pepper can become more pronounced. Despite its strength, the smoke remains harmonious and offers an interesting blend of sweet, savoury and roasted notes. This long vitola is ideal for quiet evenings when there is plenty of time to savour a complex boutique cigar.
