Latitude Cigars Quarterly Cigar Selection

2nd Quarter 2026 Member Cigar

Micallef Experiencia La Crema Churchill

​

The Micallef Experiencia La Crema Churchill has been selected as the Latitude Cigars 2nd Quarter Member Cigar, representing a perfect balance of tradition, craftsmanship, and flavor. Inspired by the legendary Cuban cigars of the 1940s through the 1960s, La Crema delivers a refined smoking experience that showcases Micallef’s deep roots in premium tobacco cultivation and blending.

Crafted in Nicaragua, this elegant 7 x 52 Churchill features a distinctive blend consisting of a Mexican San Andrés Sumatra wrapper, an Ecuadorian Habano binder, and premium long-fillers from Nicaragua, the Dominican Republic, and Panama. The result is a medium-bodied cigar with remarkable complexity and smoothness.

From the opening draw, smokers are greeted with notes of fresh-cut cedar and subtle white pepper, creating a flavorful yet approachable beginning. As the cigar develops, rich flavors of buttered nuts, milk chocolate, and creamy undertones emerge, producing a luxurious smoking texture that fully lives up to the “La Crema” name. A touch of zest lingers through the finish, adding balance and complexity without overwhelming the palate.

What sets the Experiencia La Crema apart is its ability to deliver depth and nuance while maintaining a smooth, easy-smoking character. Whether paired with a morning coffee, an aged rum, or a favorite bourbon, this cigar rewards slow enjoyment and thoughtful appreciation. Its classic Churchill format provides ample time for the blend’s flavors to evolve, making it an ideal companion for an evening gathering in the lounge or a quiet moment of relaxation.

Micallef’s commitment to quality and its homage to traditional Cuban-style blending make the Experiencia La Crema Churchill a standout selection for our membership program. We hope you enjoy this quarter’s featured cigar and the rich, creamy journey it provides from first light to final draw.
