The Romeo Y Julieta Reserve Real Nicaragua Robusto brings a Nicaraguan puro experience packed in a 5"x50 robusto format. Priced at $232.36 per box of 25, this medium-strength stick features a dark habano wrapper grown in Esteli's volcanic soil. Let's unpack this AJ Fernandez and Rafael Nodal collaboration from Tabacalera Fernandez factory.
Opens with bold earth notes and cracked black pepper. Noticeable mineral tang from Esteli soil combines with semi-sweet cocoa powder. Retrohale carries woody hints of cedar.
Pepper spice eases into roasted almond flavors. Creamy coffee emerges with faint herbal whispers - think dried thyme behind the leathery core. Smoke output remains moderate.
Cinnamon heat intensifies with dark chocolate bitterness. Mineral undertones return alongside subtle charred oak. Nik strength builds gradually - stops just short of harshness.
Tobacco sourced exclusively from AJ Fernandez's Nicaraguan farms in Esteli and Jalapa. The volcanic soil imparts distinct minerality while Jalapa leaf adds balancing sweetness. Box code confirms full manufacturing at Tabacalera Fernandez facility.
