The Romeo by Romeo y Julieta Toro en Tubo comes in aluminum tubes that make you feel like you're unboxing something special. This 6x54 Dominican blend packs full-bodied flavors without breaking the bank at $203.67 per box of 14. The dark Ecuadorian Habano wrapper glistens with just enough oil to suggest good aging potential.
Initial draws deliver black pepper spice that settles into roasted coffee beans. The smoke texture feels medium-bodied with visible oil rings in the ash.
Dark chocolate notes emerge, accompanied by a distinctive mineral tang. Burn requires one minor correction at this stage.
Leather and walnut flavors dominate as nicotine strength peaks. Retrohale reveals subtle cinnamon sweetness before slight bitterness appears at the nub.
The triple-seam cap holds firm through multiple clippings. While the tube protects the wrapper, humidity packs (65% RH) help during long-term storage. Box code inspection shows 12 months aged tobacco from Tabacalera de García's Piloto Cubano crop.
Cuban coffee enhances the earthy notes without overpowering. For spirit pairings, try añejado rum rather than sweeter aged varieties.
