Smoke: Romeo y Julieta No.2 Tubos estimating 2010 vintage
Drink: Smuttynose IPA
Tunes: nothing
Date Smoked: 1/19/2012

Wrapper: ISOM
Binder: ISOM
Filler: ISOM
Draw: Medium
Burn: Good
Misc: run time about 1 hour

Pre-light: Comes in a tube (duh) Colorado shade wrapper. “Furry” texture on wrapper. Good construction, but pronounced veins and lumpy / bumpy looking. Sweet tobacco scent. Little “ball” under cap. A little spicy and plain on the cut prelight taste.



Light: Used a cedar splint. Easy light, medium draw.

1st 3rd: Light to medium body with some spice. Creamy too, and woodsy and sweet tobacco. Nutty and mellow.



Ash: Medium gray with black streaks. Holds on for about 1”



2nd 3rd: There’s that saltwater taffy thing… Nutty and woodsy. Light to medium body with medium flavors. Sip it, and you’re rewarded. Some oily twinge setting in.



3rd 3rd: Same profile. A nice profile of salty, woodsy, nutty and oil bitter twinge.



Overall impression: Nice cigar. Enjoyable. Maybe more enjoyable for breakfast with a coffee, however this IPA is going well with it. I would split a fiver maybe, but not a whole box.

Thanks, Santa
