Mille Fleurs — French for "thousand flowers" — is one of Romeo y Julieta's oldest and best-known small cigars. It shares the brand's classic Marevas petit corona size and blend, and the name hints at the gentle floral note many smokers find in it.
What it tastes like
This is a medium-bodied, easygoing Havana with smooth cedar, roasted nuts, and a light coffee-and-honey sweetness, lifted by a delicate floral aroma on the nose. At 5.1 inches by 42 ring gauge it's an elegant, slim smoke that runs around 35 to 40 minutes. It's refined and balanced rather than powerful — comfort food in cigar form. It's a totally handmade, long-filler Cuban using tobacco from the Vuelta Abajo.
Who it's for
The Mille Fleurs is a fantastic value entry into Cuban cigars and a reliable everyday smoke. Its smooth, lightly floral character makes it very approachable for newer smokers, while its classic profile keeps veterans happy.
