It is one of the best Romeo y Julieta cigars I have smoked.
Construction
A cigar of this caliber is expected to be absolutely flawless and that is what it was. The seams were almost invisible, perfect consistency without soft or hard parts and an oiliness that is rarely found. Simply incredibly well done.
Wrapper: Cuban – Binder: Cuban – Filler: Cuban
Taste
Smell and cold draw
It is rare that you feel a scent that is as pleasant as with this cigar. The scent was smooth and the wrapper smelled of hay and fruitiness. The filler smelled like hay and had an incredibly pleasant sweetness. I could enjoy the cold draft for a long time and it was incredibly pleasant. The flavors were smooth and reminiscent of sweet general fruitiness and hay.

1/1 Of Romeo y Julieta Linea de oro hidalgo nobles
I lit the cigar thinking it would be more complex than it was. The flavors I felt were the same from start to finish. It didn’t matter, they were so good and well balanced that I wish the cigar lasted a little longer.The texture was incredibly smooth and creamy. The smooth feeling remained between flares and I didn’t feel the classic dryness. The cigar had a sweet overall fruitiness with hints of raisins. The raisin flavor in Romeo y Julieta Linea de oro hidalgo nobles gave the cigar that little extra touch.The classic taste of hay and freshly cut grass that you often find in Romeo y Julieta was there and balanced the fruitiness in a good way. There was a taste of freshly picked spices in the background and cedar wood. What was interesting was that there were shades of carbonation throughout. The retrohalation was smooth as silk and brought nuances of fresh spices with florals in the background.

After taste
The aftertaste gave me thoughts of hay and a little bit nuttiness.
Body
The body was on the lower part of medium, almost mild body.
Smoke time
About 45 minutes
Conclusion
Good cigar with medium/mild body. Perfect Construction. Great flavors with incredibly good balance. Suitable for beginners and more experienced aficionados.
