The Romeo y Julieta 1875 Gordo brings Shakespearean romance to your humidor with its beefy 6x60 frame. This Dominican-made stick packs Indonesian Shade Grown wrapper leaves around a core of aged Dominican tobaccos, delivering that classic "RYJ smoothness" newbies love. At under $160 for 15 sticks, it's built for casual smokers who want reliability without breaking the bank.
First Third: Creamy vanilla and roasted hazelnuts take center stage, with just a whisper of honey sweetness. The smoke feels like velvet pajamas - comfy but not too heavy.
Middle Third: Cocoa powder and cinnamon spice wake up the party. There's a distinct graham cracker note that keeps things grounded, perfect with black coffee.
Final Third: Leather gloves meet espresso beans in the home stretch. Some smokers bail here when the nicotine kick arrives, but those who stay get a satisfying earthy finish.
Rolled at the Tabacalera de Garcia factory, these use "Piloto Cubano" filler leaves from Jarabacoa's volcanic soil. The Connecticut-style wrapper gets shade-grown treatment for that smooth combustion. Four-year fermentation keeps the smoke cleaner than your ex's conscience.
