I bought one of these at a b&m on my way home about a week ago. I smoked it this past weekend, and enjoyed it. There was a little alcohol involed, but I dont think that affected anything. I looked online to see if I could snag a fiver from somewhere, and it seems to be an in store only thing. I would just go get another from the b&m, but thats about 2 hrs away, and they were expensive there. Anyone have any info on this smoke? Is it too new for online, or a store only kinda thing? Thanks gents!!

I had the same experience, bought at the B&M, liked it and now cannot find them on line. I know RyJ is doing roll out parties, but the big internet places don't seem to have it.

I will also say that this is the first Romeo I have found myself reaching for again in a short time period. Habana Reserve is good but it wasn't ever one I reached for with any regularity. This new blend is a nice full bodied blend with a good price point. Overall I would call it a winner for Altadis.

I agree. I'm not a huge RyJ guy, but these seemed to be pretty good. I will definetly have to pick up a fiver to try and let sit tho, to see what they're like with a little down time. Thanks for the replies and offers guys!

I saw these in the B&M when I was in there last week-ish. Wondered about them, but not enough to pick one up. Might have to reconsider next time I'm in there. I seem to remember these were larger ring gauges, though I only looked briefly and it could just be that's what my B&M had in...yes/no?

yup, nothing below a 52, their "church" is more like a tubby corona gorda. they are not bad at all, and worth burning to try.

EDIT: ninjas, man! i swear! o)

Picked a church up in a B&M last week. Lasted most of two hours while driving Saturday. Good use of it. Not one that I'd like to sit and contemplate, but enjoyable enough. It sort of reminded me of the Macanudo 1968. Similar finish, chewy smoke - doesn't evolve, but the single note is more of a nice chord. I doubt there were many better $9 110 minute smokes in that shop.

Hell yeah, great stick. Same experience can only find the Romeo's I don't want online. Buy this stick about every other time at my B&M.

Enjoyed smoking a couple last month. It's on the CA top 25 is why I thought I would at least try it when I saw it on the store. I was looking for something different from what I normally smoke. Decent stick for sure.
