Romeo y Julieta Petit Julietas Cigar - 1 Single by Andrew

As others have commented this offering has a very tight draw but it does have good leather/coffee flavours with an even, 25mins, burn. Overpriced though; I enjoyed the smoke but it is not worth buying more I do

Romeo y Julieta No. 3 Tubed Cigar - 1 Single by Thomas

Very pleasant cigar. Easy to cut, light and smoke, with a strong yet not overwhelming flavour, making it suitable for a cigar beginner such as myself. Rather powerful aroma and taste of spice, definitely a cigar that can be enjoyed both in the cold winter or warm sunny weather. I may order a box of these cigars

Regius Connecticut Gran Toro Cigar - 1 Single by Richard

For a “gran toro” size, it’s decent value for money. I’ve had the “grandido” before and found it a brilliant smoke for a Churchill size. This was OK, but it had a very ‘powdery’, ashy burn to it, which let it down a bit, and gave it a dry taste. That said, it burned evenly and lasted as long as you’d expect; getting on for two hours. For a few quid more, I’d go for the Brickhouse “Mighty Mighty” instead in future.

Romeo y Julieta No. 3 Tubed Cigar - 1 Single by Andy

As I removed this from the tube and smelt it I could smell the strong spice, after I cut it which was nice easy and clean I found it easy to light and it lit evenly and burn evenly all the way through. The strong spice flavour made this cigar so enjoyable and I found even though the spice flavour died down in the final quarter the cigar was full of flavour and smoked beautifully. One of the best Cubans Ive had and for the price you really cant argue. I would recommend this cigar to anyone.

Romeo y Julieta Mille Fleur Cigar - 1 Single by Andrew

These little RyJs are a perfect morning or pre-dinner cigar, these are type of vitola is I started my cigar journey some 22+ years ago. I wouldnt contemplate lighting one of these little chaps until they have passed their 3rd box date birthday! The flavour of these cigars really improves with age, the review cigar here is box date 2008 and they are smoking really well now. I always have at least two boxes in my aging humidor and this is the cigar I would give to someone new to cigars to get them thinking about aging (Id get them to try a younger one and an aged one for comparison) Im sure the aging improves the draw on these, the flavours are mild to medium I find them floral and woody with a coffee and slight leather on the finish, this is not a super complex cigar but a great 40 minutes of smoking pleasure, if your thinking of getting some of these, get an aged one if you can, if not age it yourself and you will be rewarded of your patience!

Ron Santiago de Cuba 12 Year Old Extra Anejo Rum - 40% 70cl by Ken

Despite some varying views this remains a favourite of mine which Ive enjoyed at home & several times when Ive been in Cuba. The Cubans themselves regard this as one of their top rums & take great pleasure when you order this from a bar The tasting notes are everything as described. Personally I like it with ice & wouldnt dream adding a mixture though some do. Highly recommended.
