The Romeo y Julieta 1875 Deluxe No.1 Glass Tubes comes rocking a sleek 7x50 parejo shape in those fancy glass tubes we all love. This Dominican-made stick packs Indonesian shade-grown wrapper leaves with aged long-fillers, burning like a white ash champion. At about $8.40 per cigar in 10-count boxes, it's your classic medium-bodied crowd pleaser.
First Third: That Connecticut Shade wrapper hits with buttery almonds and cedar spice. Honey sweetness lingers like that friend who won't leave the party. Smoke output stays chill - no choking clouds here.
Middle Third: Shifts into warm baking spices - think cinnamon toast with whole-grain cracker dryness. Pepper tickles the nose but doesn't throw punches. Burn line stays razor-sharp if you've kept these babies at 65% RH.
Final Third: Gets earthy with damp limestone minerality. Leather notes creep in but keep it classy. Cut it before the nub unless you enjoy licking ashtrays.
The glass tubes actually work - got one rattling around my golf bag for months that still lit up fine. Dominican Piloto Cubano tobacco gives that signature smoothness, though some batches show wrapper veins. Boveda-packed boxes ensure they arrive smokable right out the mail.
Morning coffee companions. Golf course warriors. Newbies cutting their teeth on something that won't buzz them out. Not your heavy-hitting flavor bomb, but that's why God made Oliva V Series.
