Xmas & New Year Review Comp 2018 Romeo y Julieta Petite Royales

[leafdream54]

This is from a 24:24 Hand Picked SMA JUN 18.  It's been resting for about 30 days.

Pre-draw:  sweet cedar, perfect draw

The cigar starts off with a strong cedar flavor and sharp aroma.  There is a slightly wonky burn about half way, along with a few brief good flavors of RyJ dna, then there is a slight dryness to the smoke, along with lots of  'elbows and knees'.

Conclusion:  these are much too young for now.  Back into storage they go for at least a few more months, before I try another.  I think they will be good smokes, but they just need more down time.

Thank you for this review! This happens to be one of my favorite fresh smokes, I get cherry flavors all the way, which I can't say the same for other RyJ sticks of similar age.
