gigabyte056 Posted June 15, 2011 Posted June 15, 2011 Hi all, This is a review of the Romeo y Julieta No.2 cigar. Cigars were gifted to me from a friend who wanted to give me some Cuban cigars. It is a new smoker cigar which I am not partial to but decided to review it since I couldn't find a proper review of it. Cigar was stored in tubes for the past 4 months and I have no box code since it came in a 5 pack. Paired with Avian. Room RH is 70% and temp is 27c Wrapper is slightly oily, the foot is tight as is the cigar, upon cutting the draw is fine and at cold cedar and tobacco tastes are present. Cigar started off with cedar and leather at full strength. First 1/3 Cigar is gone down to medium body, some cream,spice and cedar. Second 1/3 Leather, cedar, lighter spice . some cream and a light taste of orange peel. Third 1/3 Spice is gone completely, strong tobacco taste , heavy on the nicotine at this stage with some floral notes. A cheap cigar that is quite well made, not complex but for the price it is a nice cigar, not for the connoisseur but a good introductory to Cubans. Rated at 83 Hope you enjoy this review.
Scdalak Posted June 16, 2011 Posted June 16, 2011 Well Done, Thanks.. My first introduction to Cubans was the R & J Tubo #3 I picked up in Cayman Islands 10 years ago. being a beginner back then I liked them for thier creamy mildness , not to mention Petite size. Was a great 30 minute smoke, till this day always keep a handful in the humi for that casual quickie. I would give the #1, 2 3 all around 85 Rating, they are what they are, but enjoyable nonetheless!
El Presidente Posted June 16, 2011 Posted June 16, 2011 Very good review of a cigar which never gets reviewed One of the highest selling cigars in the world and hence the front door for many being introduced to Cuban cigars.
