Romeo y Julieta Belicosos Cigar – Single

The Romeo y Julieta Belicosos Cigar is crafted in the Campanas (pyramide) format, measuring 140mm (5½ inches) in length with a 52-ring gauge. This Cuban cigar features a tapered head design for improved draw control and is hand-rolled with Vuelta Abajo tobacco. The blend combines aged filler and binder leaves with a slightly oily wrapper leaf that contributes to consistent combustion.

Flavor Profile

The Romeo y Julieta Belicosos Cigar delivers sequential flavor development through three stages:

• Initial third: Cedar, damp earth, and toasted almond notes
• Middle third: Floral hints, vanilla bean, and crushed black pepper
• Final third: Roasted coffee beans, unsweetened cocoa, and aged leather undertones

A residual natural sweetness from the Vuelta Abajo tobacco persists throughout the smoking duration.

Construction Details

The Romeo y Julieta Belicosos Cigar demonstrates precise engineering with its 15-degree tapered head that concentrates smoke output. The triple-seam cap ensures structural integrity during cutting, while the dense pack of long-filler leaves maintains a 75-85 minute burn time. The cigar’s combustion properties allow for uniform ash formation with minimal relighting requirements.

Aging Potential

When stored at 65-68% relative humidity, the Romeo y Julieta Belicosos Cigar develops increased complexity over 3-5 years. Post-aging observations show enhanced coffee and cocoa notes with softened pepper intensity. The cigar remains stable for immediate consumption but benefits from 90-120 days of humidor acclimation after shipment.
