Strada Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 Romeo y Julieta Piramides Anejados Size: 52x156 Box Code: GEA MAR 08 Pre-light:Good aroma at cold, loose is draw and quite soft feeling construction. Doesn't have a that particular 'aged' smell to it. 1st third: Ample amount of dry smoke, toasted tobacco with some wood flavors. Cedar. Medium body and quite smooth. Halfway: Sitting nicely at medium body, short finish, still lots of smoke. Good tobacco and cedar flavors. Definitely taste like a Romeo. A bit too shallow for me. No depth nor character... Final: increasingly strong and nicotine potent. Not as smooth anymore. Still flavors of toasted tobacco and woodiness. It still has room to mature but I don't know how well it will further age. Good to try for Romeo lovers, I won't be buying a box. Cheers 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LordAnubis Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 I had one last night while herfing with ChanceSchmer. It was totally wierd. No RyJ characteristics at all. To begin with it was very mild and had the faintest hint of salty short cake biscuit. Towards the middle a little bit of spice came out reminiscent of a weak partagas P2. In the final 2 inches it became quite bitter and ammonia harshness came through. Construction on mine was quite good, no problems. A very weird smoking experience indeed. I won't be buying a box. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No sign of aged tobacco in these for me.... Good to see the pic of you and Chris at Foxy's! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
