Shop Churchill cigars at Cigar Nation, a classic long-format cigar built for relaxed, unhurried smoking sessions. A traditional Churchill runs around 7 inches with a 48-50 ring gauge, giving it enough length for real flavor development from first light to final third without the extra girth of a Gordo or Torpedo.

This collection also includes Double Corona sizes, which run close to the same length as a Churchill but with a slightly wider ring gauge, similar enough in dimension and smoking time that we group them together here rather than splitting off a separate, thinly stocked category. If you're comparing the two side by side, expect a marginally fuller draw from a Double Corona and a slightly more classic, traditional feel from a standard Churchill.

Both formats suit evening smokes, golf rounds, patio conversations, and bourbon pairings where you want more time to settle in. Use Cigar Nation's Burn Clock™ guidance to compare estimated smoke time, then choose the Churchill or Double Corona that fits your pace and occasion. Browse our in-stock selection across multiple brands and wrapper styles.

The Churchill vitola takes its name from Winston Churchill, whose habit of smoking long, substantial cigars was well documented enough during his lifetime that Cuban rollers eventually named a size after him, one of a handful of vitola names tied to a specific real person rather than a generic descriptive term like Robusto or Corona.

That naming history is part of why Churchill carries a certain formality other long formats don't quite have, it's associated with occasion and stature almost as much as with its actual dimensions. Practically speaking, though, a Churchill's 7-inch, 48-50 ring gauge profile puts it in a fairly narrow format for its length, more like a longer Corona than a long Toro, which is why it burns a touch cooler and more gradually than a same-length cigar with a wider ring gauge would.

If you've spent time in our Corona collection and want a longer session with the same general narrow-format character rather than switching to something wider, Churchill is the natural next step up in length without changing the fundamental draw and burn characteristics you already know from the narrower formats.
