Romeo y Julieta Short Churchill Cigar - 1 Single

Date Added: Tuesday 30 June, 2015 by Daniel

This is a good average cigar. Decent size at around an hours smoke. Unlike its younger brothers I would say this definitely has a more medium body - it starts off quite mild but a reasonably strong pepper taste soon kicks in. Worth a try for sure.

After a year of not picking up a Cuban cigar I bought one of these in my new sampler which promptly arrived a day ago. Boy was this a good reintroduction to Cuban's. Pre light draw gave a slight sweetness with a mild(white) pepper notes. After a good toast and light the smoke gave off a light floral notes with the slight sweetness and light pepper to the front and mid palate. The 2nd and last 3rd also saw some salty notes with a mild sweetness some woody notes and sour/sharp citrus notes, and like the 1st third light pepper. Combustion was spot on, never died out and burn line was razor sharp. Even when the burn line went off slightly it easily self corrected. Total burn time was 1 hour and 10 mins. I do not rush my cigar's and this was just a joy to smoke from start to finish. Very smooth smoke right up to the nub. This little gem has made it on my list to repurchase later on this year. As with all my Cigar's this was put into a humidor holding 65% humidity. I have the bigger brother the Wide Churchill resting in my humidor, and if this one is anything to go buy I'am in for a real treat.

Rather enjoyed this one. Sometimes find the Romeo y Julietas lacking substance, but not so with this unique and interesting stick. Started mild, but flavours kicked in after a few puffs. Savoury, almost salty taste backed with leather and hints of spice. Good easy draw and on the whole a nice smoke, lasting around an hour.

Must admit I wasn’t expecting much of this, previous RYJ’s had been harsh and not very pleasant, however I couldn’t have been more wrong. This is a little gem, very easy draw all the way to the nub. Smooth creamy smoke which coats the palette, the first 3rd was light in flavour but the flavour started building and by the time I reached the band it had become medium flavoured but not harsh. Took about 45 minutes to smoke all the way and this is one of the very few cigars which I have had that burns strongly in the ashtray. Smokes all the time and produces firm ash which didn’t fall until I was half way through. All in all a very nice surprise and I have ordered some more to lay down and see how they mature.
