San Cristobal Quintessence Churchill (7x49 / 4 Pack)

San Cristobal Quintessence brings together highly rated pedigree, estate-grown Nicaraguan tobacco, and the blending expertise of renowned cigar maker José “Pepin” Garcia. Handcrafted and aged in Estelí, Nicaragua, Quintessence is a distinguished expression of the San Cristobal portfolio created for adult cigar enthusiasts who appreciate rich tobacco character, complexity, and a medium-to-full-bodied profile.

The blend features a lustrous Ecuador Habano wrapper surrounding select Nicaraguan binder and long-filler tobaccos grown on Garcia family estates. The combination of Ecuadorian wrapper leaf and Nicaraguan interior tobaccos creates a flavorful foundation that showcases the depth and spice associated with Pepin Garcia's blending style.

Generally medium to full-bodied, San Cristobal Quintessence offers tasting notes that may be reminiscent of cedar, cocoa, roasted coffee bean, molasses-like sweetness, earth, and warm spice. Its woody and roasted characteristics are complemented by touches of natural sweetness, while increasing spice may add further dimension as the cigar develops. Individual flavor, aroma, strength, construction, and overall smoking characteristics may vary by cigar and individual palate.

Quintessence earned significant recognition from Cigar Aficionado in 2021, receiving a published 95-point rating and ranking as the #3 Cigar of the Year. These accolades have helped make Quintessence one of the most recognized expressions in the San Cristobal portfolio.
