First rolled during the late 1980s and early 1990s, the La Flor de Cano Short Churchill offers a glimpse into the brand's historic production. This vitola was introduced to the market in 1987 and maintained its presence until being discontinued in 1992, making it a relatively short-lived addition to the regular production lineup.

Production History
The Short Churchill entered the La Flor de Cano portfolio as a regular production cigar on January 1, 1987. Despite its promising format and the respected reputation of the La Flor de Cano brand, this particular vitola had a limited production run, ultimately being withdrawn from the market in 1992. This five-year window means that surviving examples have become increasingly scarce and sought after by collectors.
