Romeo Y Julieta Bully

5" X 50, Natural

Appearance: A very pretty firm, rather tightly rolled cigar. This cigars tasty looking tan wrapper was smooth and had a nice little sheen to it, it was quite inviting.

Pre-Light: Clipped easy and produced a forgiving draw. Pre Light notes of cinnamon and ginger. This cigar practically begged to be lit.

Burn/Draw: Perfect. This is a very well constructed cigar and it shows. In the picture below you can see that it burned razor straight, and in this aspect it continued for the length of the cigar. The ash was light grey and quite firm and held for a long time. The draw was a tad tight but not a problem in any way and still produced adequate smoke billows. On the whole all these things enhanced the smoking experience.
Flavors: This was one smooth, tasty cigar. I have been revisiting the natural wrappered cigars again that I largely ignore now recently, and I must say it has been a fulfilling experience! This cigar has notes of molasses and brown sugar, cinnamon and ginger, and other sweet caramelly goodness. It is firmly medium in body and medium in strength, and at no point did it ever get harsh. If you are looking for a powerhouse this is definitely not for you but if a nice mellow smoke to accompany a mellow cup of coffee or tea is what you need, give this one a try!
