This 6"x60 Nicaraguan puro brings serious gordo energy to Romeo's Reserva Real line. Packed with AJ Fernandez's signature Estelí-grown tobacco, the Magnum version amps up the intensity while keeping that creamy RyJ DNA. At about $10/stick in 20-count boxes, it's positioned as an affordable daily smoke for medium-plus strength enthusiasts.
The habano wrapper delivers immediate black pepper spice through the nose, mellowing into roasted almonds after 15 minutes. Watch for mineral notes if stored below 65% RH.
Caramel sweetness emerges alongside cedar wood core. The draw opens up to reveal baking spices - think cinnamon stick dipped in espresso.
Lasts 45+ minutes with cocoa powder dominance. Savory hickory smoke and salty undertakes develop, though some report slight tar buildup past the band.
Triple cap holds firm despite the massive 60 ring gauge. The dark blue box differs from RyJ's classic red packaging - allow 2-3 years aging to soften pepper edges. Pairs best with peaty scotch or black coffee.
