Romeo y Julieta Taster Pack

Romeo y Julieta 1875

Repeated review. This one is sitting at about 20 months of rest. The flavor includes leather with subtle hints of spice and wood. The draw and burn are both very consistent due to solid construction in the roll.

This one gets better with rest, sitting at about 18 months on this one. The flavor brings out leather with subtle hints of spice and wood. The draw and burn are both very consistent due to solid construction in the roll.

I’ve had these sitting for about 9 months and they are even more enjoyable now than before. I don’t have a ton of time to sit back and smoke but these have come in handy for small moments of repose

Nothing amazing, but a good casual smoke. The flavor leans towards leather with subtle hints of spice and maybe a little wood. The draw and burn are both consistent though due to solid construction in the roll.

This is kind of a classic for me but as the palette advances I find this one doesn’t cut it as much

Nice draw. But the cigar was barely lit before I noticed it was already tunneling in the center. Tunneling finally stopped in second third. Flavor was not very good. Very ashy tasting. Definitely not on my buy again list.

Smooth and creamy. Flavors of nut cedar and a hint of sweet and spice. Mild and paired well with diet coke.

TL;DR - smokes great and tastes like burned vegetables. Pass. 5 mos aged. ⏳️ Prelight is hay with light honey. Tastes of light leather. Goldilocks draw with impeccable outer construction. Wrapper is a little spotty. Lights up perfectly. Starting off, there's a Woody undertone that's paired with a grassy experience. Retrohale is a bit grassy also. Now, grassy-vegetable is settling on the palate. Not great. I'm guessing it's the Indonesian wrapper that's doing this. It's a first impression for me and not a good one. First third is complete, and I'm not seeing that this is going to change. For a similar experience, maybe chew some burnt Bok Choy and Kale. Early discard.

2mo rested. Draw a bit tight, burn good. Smooth and creamy with a touch of nut and spice. Flavor a bit one dimensional.

Updated review. Still portrayed as a simple cigar in terms of flavor, with mostly spice and leather notes. The construction is solid. This time, however, the draw was smooth and not too tight, so the flavors blended better. The burn still stayed fairly even. In general, the construction quality is solid, and the I really cigar gets a slight rating improvement over the recent 80 on the last try. Acquired from TGS24 event.

A simple cigar in terms of flavor, with mostly just spice and leather notes. The construction is solid. The draw was a little tight, but the burn stayed fairly even. In general, the construction quality is appreciated, but the flavor is a little too underwhelming. Acquired from TGS24 event.

R&J is a classic on a cold snowy day. Took a bit to get lit, but probably because of the below freezing weather.

"Attractive, with nice oils, this cigar has a fine draw and a spicy, chewy flavor with hints of leather. It has a pleasant, cedary finish."

This cigar has a fine draw and a spicy, chewy flavor with hints of leather and sweetness!

Romeo y Julieta 1875

R&J was one of the first cigars I ever had many years ago. Definitely brings back memories of what got me into this hobby in the first place. Definitely worth keeping one or two on hand in the humidor.

I love these little beauties! I used to sit on cigarillos but these guys have changed my mind. It’s often the case that if I’m going to smoke in the morning I only have ~30 minutes or so before work. Grabbed a book, a coffee, and prepped myself for the day. Smooth cigar that is creamy all the way through. Thick clouds, peppery finish, nice medium body the whole way.

Kind of liked it, but wont buy a box. Nice cigar, slightly tight draw initially. Good burn. Flavor was fine, but nothing special to report

Nicely rolled cigar, smooth wrapper. Good draw, plenty of creamy smoke. First notes are sweet, cedar, graham cracker. Very balanced and smooth. Mild to medium strength.
