In December of last year, Habanos S.A. announced a new vision and concept, especially for Habanos S.A., and it was called Añejados. It can be translated as Aged Habanos, and the idea behind is that Habanos S.A. would be releasing aged Habanos, something they don't do. These Habanos are between five and eight years old, and they have aging in Habana all that time. The releases would be limited to two Global Brands, and those brands would be Montecristo and Romeo y Julieta. The vitolas would be existing vitolas, and what makes these releases even more interesting is that the vitolas used in each brand are popular vitolas for the opposing brand. The Montecristo brand would have an aged Julieta No. 2, and the Romeo y Julieta brand would be receiving a Pirámides. Brother Catfish recently reviewed the Romeo offering, but today I look at the Montecristo Churchills Añejados.
