I recently purchased the Robert Lewis sampler pack and this is the first one I've tried. Given this smoke I can't wait to try the rest from the range. It's a very smooth and cool smoke with a subtle sweetness. It also has a great aroma.

These are are mild enough and not unpleasant, but for me the filter really takes away from the experience. Like with other filtered cigarillos, you lose a lot of the flavour and body that makes cigars enjoyable, so they end up tasting closer to cigarettes. They do have a couple of positives, they come well presented, they’re consistent, and because they’re filtered and tightly packed, they keep for ages without needing a humidor.
They’re useful to have tucked away for convenience, but personally I find them a bit flat. If you just want something mild and easy with no upkeep, they’ll do the job. But if you actually want that fuller cigar taste, I’d say skip the filters altogether.

My first Romeo y Julieta. It was a pleasant smoke although muted by being slightly over humidified, due to the amount of rain we have had recently.
It was extremely smooth from start to finish with a savoury roasted nut flavour and occasional background sweetness. I will have to order another and make sure to dry box it next time!

Nice steady smoke, light to medium taste and a bit peppery. Held ash well and remained lit. 45 minute smoke. Not the worst not the best but would buy again

The Rocky Patel Seed to Smoke Shade Toro is a big cigar that lasted me well over an hour. Smooth and creamy thanks to the shade wrapper, with an even burn and easy draw the whole way through. It feels like a high quality stick but still offers great value for money, making it a solid choice when you’ve got the time to sit back and enjoy.

Romeo y Julieta No. 2 Tubed Cigar - 1 Single
by Richard
The Romeo y Julieta No. 2 was one of the first Cuban cigars I really sat down and paid attention to, and I can see why it’s considered a classic. From the first puff, it had this elegance that made me slow down and appreciate what was happening. The flavors are smooth and refined—wood, leather, and a touch of spice, but nothing harsh. There’s also a creamy sweetness that reminded me of almonds or marzipan, which played beautifully with the cedar notes. The construction was flawless: even burn, steady draw, and that lovely white Cuban ash that you hear people talk about. It felt like it was teaching me what a well-made cigar should be. As it developed, I picked up some floral undertones and a little bit of nuttiness, which made each puff feel slightly different. I smoked this slowly, and it rewarded me with over an hour of satisfaction without ever becoming bitter. Honestly, as someone exploring cigars seriously for the first time, this felt like a big step up in quality and enjoyment. It gave me a real appreciation for why Cuban cigars are so highly regarded.
