Romeo y Julieta Churchill BEL DIC 20 (XNYRW6)

[Akela3rd]

 

Half day at work so got home, wrapped up warm, picked out a cigar I've been eyeing for a couple of weeks and headed out into a gorgeous winter afternoon. Last of a six pack I got last year that have been rather good (and, yes, I bought a box later...).

1/3 Beautiful rosado wrapper, perfect draw from a straight cut and fruity from the get-go. Quite mild but full of that signature cherry. Voluminous smoke output. Smooth and calming.

2/3 Hints of lemon develop adding a pleasant tartness to the mix. New leather and that strange but not unpleasant scent peculiar to charity (thrift) shops.

3/3 Getting chilly despite the layers so I'm going to cut it shorter than planned. Solid medium now and very satisfying. Cherry and burnt sugar, more good leather. Immaculate burn throughout.

An excellent cigar and perfect for a free Friday afternoon, like a weekend treat come early.

Score? In the nineties easily.

Nice review . This was my first cuban I ever tried and that's what started me on this wonderful/expensive journey
