Romeo y Julieta Vintage Toro Glass Tubes

This Dominican-made Toro comes ready to smoke in crystal tubes, showing off its Ecuadorian Connecticut Shade wrapper like a golden tan. At 6"x50, it's your classic evening smoke - mild enough for newbies but flavorful enough to keep veterans interested. That Mexican binder gives just enough spice to balance the Dominican filler's creaminess.

Smoking Notes

Cold Draw: Sweet hay and pencil shavings

First Third

Creamy smoke with toasted almonds upfront. The Dominican filler shines through - think warm milk with a dash of white pepper. Burn line stays razor sharp.

Middle Third

Cedar notes emerge, blending with the persistent creaminess. Some detect vanilla pod sweetness, others get a subtle floral hint. Ash holds firm for 1.5"+

Final Third

Develops baking spices - nutmeg specifically. The Connecticut wrapper's sweetness intensifies slightly. Watch for heat buildup past the band.

Comparables

  • Macanudo Cafe Toro: 6" x 50, More floral, Less spice
  • AVO Classic Toro: 6" x 50, Citrus zest notes, Drier finish
  • Montecristo White Toro: 6" x 54, Heavier on vanilla, Tighter draw

Construction Notes

These hold up better than most Connecticuts in humidity swings thanks to the glass tubes. The triple cap tears cleanly with most cutters. While not oily, the wrapper feels supple after 60 days in humidor.

When to Smoke

Morning coffee pairing works surprisingly well. Also a safe choice for golf course sessions - won't overpower between swings.
