One of three new releases in the marca’s 2018 limited-edition line, the Romeo y Julieta Taco is a modern interpretation of the classic 1970s Tacos Imperiale’s shape. It is long and elegant and is ideal for any level of smoker with its mid-strength and body.
Tacos LE 2018 Overview
Wrapped in a dark, chocolatey wrapper with prominent veins is this limited edition, rustic-looking cigar. It is 6.6” long and has a ring gauge of 49, which makes it the longest but not the broadest offering from the Limited Edition line.
Smoking a Tacos LE 2018
With a uniform springiness and deep brown Maduro wrapper, the Taco exudes hay, earth, leather, and vanilla aromas. The pre-draw reveals flavors of espresso and clay with hints of a floral background.
After lighting, the dominating flavors include salted almonds and creaminess backed by intense cedar flavors. The floral notes get stronger through the first third and white pepper becomes more apparent on the retrohale.
Moving towards the middle third, strong caramel sweetness makes its way into opulent flavor combinations. However, the mild- to mid-strength stick has not yet hit its stride, as it becomes increasingly full-bodied in the final third. With only a few touch-ups needed, the burn line is consistent and steady.
Cigar Value
The Romeo y Julieta Taco is a limited edition release that benefits from a few years in the humidor. Left for two to three years to age, the Taco is a delicious and attractive cigar that deserves your undivided attention.
Tacos LE 2018 Experience
With salted almonds and a creamy woodsy scent, this handsome Taco Limited Edition includes more sweet caramel notes than the usual stone fruit tartness in some Romeo y Julieta offerings. With a smoking time of just under two hours and lots of aromatic smoke, this is a great mild- to mid-strength cigar with just the right balance of salty and sweet.
