Romeo y Julieta

Edicion Limitada

Cigarmakers are known to create blends that celebrate various benchmarks along their journey. But when the iconic retailer and blender JR Cigar was approaching a half century of service to the industry and its customers, Altadis U.S.A knew they had to do something big. That meant the production of the Romeo y Julieta Edicion Limitada, which was released in 2021. Beloved by critics across the industry, the cigar was crafted by Rafael Nodal, the mastermind behind some of the most highly rated cigars of the last quarter century. Nodal may best be known for his work with the Aging Room brand and other boutique smokes that have dominated respected top 25 lists everywhere. Given his intense focus on quality ingredients and perfectly seasoned tobacco, he was the right choice to help JR with this particular milestone. The cigar itself features a Mexican Criollo wrapper, broadleaf binder and aged Nicaraguan and Dominican long fillers and is medium-bodied in strength. The tasting notes are that of dark roasted coffee, cedar and creamy caramel. Take an exceptional journey through its palate enriching flavors and aromas that can only be found in this extraordinary blend whose dynamic tones make it ideal for a post-dining sunset experience along with an espresso and a fine pastry. Because there are only 6,000 total cigars in production, the Romeo y Julieta Edicion Limitada has received an incredible amount of attention from seasoned aficionados hoping to keep a few in their humidors over the next few years. Offering cigar aficionados the chance to indulge in unique and carefully curated blend, these exclusive releases by Romeo y Julieta Limited Edition boast distinguished flavor profiles that push the boundaries of more traditional cigar craftsmanship. Of course, as the revered brand begins working on its 75th anniversary, the Nodal blend should only mature if stored properly. JR Cigar began as an industry underdog; a brand that was created, in part, to bring the luxury smoking experience to the workingman and woman. With Cuban style cigars becoming harder and harder to access, JR’s Alternative line brought the Cuban style to America, along with dozens of other signature tastes and styles that were thought to be out of the average price range. These cigars come in a 12-count cedar chest, with each stick wrapped in beautiful red aluminum. The packaging alone has been worth the box purchase for many collectors who love to display special editions. The Romeo y Julieta Edicion Limitada stands up to many of the other collector items that are released in short supply on a yearly basis. The fast-paced demand says it all.
