Romeo y Julieta No. 1 Tubed Cigar - Box of 25

Date Added: Wednesday 15 June, 2011 by adrian

I'm new to the world of cubans and purchased a box (x10) of these at the duty free. After several months ageing in the humi I have smoked two of these in the last couple of weeks and have been disappointed on both occasions. On the taste side, after initial creaminess in the first 1/3, the cigar progressed to strong hints of nuttiness/nutmeg, wood and a pepperiness that was present throughout. I later tasted almonds and a hint of spice - taste was mostly no problem. My issue is with the draw and burn - on both occasions the draw has been tight, and the burn uneven. I have had to relight on both occasions, the second time after the cigar tunneled out at 2/3 of the way. The amount of smoke was ok, but the taste became foul and bitter towards the end, becoming hot as well. Will be interesting to see if things improve with the rest of the box with further ageing, but having read the larely postive reviews here, begining to think i got a dodgy box..!

A comment more on the service from C.Gars LTD more than the cigar; My order was delivered swiftly, an excellent service and the complimentary matches came as a welcome surprise. Will definitely be ordering from here again - best place on the internet to by cigars!

This is a perfect cigar for any time of day, mild/medium strength, spicy with hints of wood, reasonably priced, [given that this is the UK], with a tube, to prevent damage. written by Kevin Hemsley
