Romeo y Julieta Reserve Maduro Mini Bellicoso Review

I just won a box of these, very interesting little cigars. Nice construction, neat shape. Pre light draw was uneventful and the light was nice and even. The first third was a touch spicy but it evened out and the Maduro flavors came on smoothly. This cigar actually was a touch milder and sweeter than it's Toro cousin which surprised me. The finish was silky and smooth right down to the nub. The more you smoked it the more you wanted. The burn was average for a Maduro with the typical ragged edges. This cigar is now in my top three Maduro's. I'm glad I have 26 more to enjoy.

I gave mine a week to settle. The longer they're in the humi, the better. I'm about to start looking for a deal on another box, even though I have about 18 left.

re: Romeo y Julieta Reserve Maduro Mini Bellicoso Review

I've not had the mini bellicoso's but the little 4 paks of #4's? #5's? Were one of my staple after dinner cigars for quite some time. I'm a big fan of Corona's or smaller vitolas that allow a great 20+minute smoke. The little maduro Ryj's did just that.

Either CI or JR's recently had a nice sale on the older 25 count boxes. The coronas for $59 were sold out,but I do think they had the smaller #4's and #5's still listed.
