Chateau Real Shade Lord Tennyson Churchill 7" * 50

Drew Estate created the Chateau Real cigar for the cigar connoisseur who craves refined premium cigars that are mild, nutty, sweet and creamy. Reminiscent of pre-embargo clear Havana blends that are mild to medium bodied and smooth, the Chateau Real is made with a golden brown silky shade grown wrapper.

This large corona is traditionally 7*48. Length can vary from 6 3/4 to 7 7/8 inches by 46 to 50 ring.

Most cigars are round in shape, as this is how the cigars are rolled by the torcedor.

This cigar is 7 inches long, or 177.8 mm.

Most cigars are manufactured in the Caribbean and Central America.
Despite many decades of war and revolution in this Central American country, the cigar industry has thrived due to the hard work and tenacity of Cuban exiles to the land such as Plasencia, Padron, Oliva, Ortez, and others. Tobacco has been a force of social stability, and the country is now one of the principal exporters of premium cigars in the world.

The cigar ring gauge corresponds to the diameter of a cigar, this cigar has a ring gauge of 50, so his diameter is 50/64 inches or 19.81 mm.

Cigar wrapper color varies from green (Double Claro or Candela) to black (Maduro or Oscuro) with a full range of browns in between.
Claro wrapper is light, yellowish brown in color.

Handmade cigars are completely made by hand from start to finish.

Drew Estate was founded in 1998 by New Yorkers and friends Jonathan Drew and Marvin Samel. Their dream to make great cigars has turned into one of the best success stories in the industry, and their factory in Esteli, Nicaragua, called "La Gran Fabrica Drew Estate" is today one of the five largest premium cigar factories in the world.

The wrapper is the last tobacco leaf to be rolled on the cigar, so it is the one the smoker will see.
Ecuador is the perfect place to grow wrappers, because it is located on the Equator! And it has rich soils too. The weather conditions, with a nearly permanent cloudy sky, provide a natural shade, protecting the wrapper plants from sunshine and allowing the tobacco to grow thin and light. This climate allows tobacco growers to grow Connecticut-seed wrapper in the shade without shade cloths, resulting in more economical wrapper.

The binder is a full tobacco leaf that is used to roll the cigar, binding the filler tobaccos together. 

Filler is the term used to describe the tobacco inside a cigar or the "guts" of the cigar.
