Smoking a 7"x50 CI Knock-Off LA GLORIA CUBANA CHURCHILL, Rated '83'. You would be surprised at the quality of the Knock-Offs. Along with this Churchill, I have also enjoyed the 6"x52 COHIBA (Rated '85') & MACANUDO TORPEDO (Rated '82') Knock-Offs. All 3 are legit premiums and would serve as a good tasting, medium smokes to knock around in. You can actually do a Quickbuy purchase at Cigar Bid, and get a bundle of the 6"x50 Cohiba Cameroon Toro for only $32.00.

I see C.I. has one of my favorite daily Maduros up as their new weekly special. 20 of the 5"x56 PADILLA HYBRID MADURO GORDO for $39.99. Great buy. If you want to save a few bucks you can do a $37.50 Quickbuy at Cigar Bid for the very same 20 Bundle! After 6 weeks of naked aging they are a good, semi sweet darkie.

Can you post a review of your Felipe Gregorio Fusion Churchill when you decide to smoke it? There are very few reviews of this cigar online.
