New Romeo y Julietas

I have been in contact with the VP of Advertising from Altadis USA. She is a great person and decided to bomb me with some of their premiums including some oft he RyJs that I haven't heard of before. My guess is these are to be unveiled at the RTDA and for the good folks here even before that :smiley2:

Very cool! I really wish I could sneak into the RTDA this year. There are so many cool new blends that I'd love to check out. Those RyJs, the new CAO America, etc.

Nice looking tube - looks a little like the preferidos... or something NSFW. :smiley16:

NSFW...hmmm...what could that be....


I just wonder if they are going to be a little fuller than their other cigars.

Got me 1 of the tubos's too. Picked it up recently along with a Trinidad 100th robusto. The Trinidad wasn't jack to me. Maybe the Romeo will burn tonight.

I am not a huge fan of the EL one in the tube. It is one thing to pay homage to the almighty cuban cigar, but it is another to directly copy it.

The Romeo sucked! Hope you have better luck Dan. Mine had soft spots and the whole cigar became very mushy at about 4 fingers. Started a little bitter and went plain strong tobacco. Very loose prelight. Lots of smoke and mellowed a bit about half way. Was still open minded at this point. Then started to give burnt skanky foulness. Went out in my mouth. The construction and spongyness reminded me of one of those POS Sauza cigars. Burn problems to boot. Presentation and banding are nice, but so is the Sauza. I'll stick with the Romeo Reserve Maduro.
