Romeo y Julieta Reserva Real Toro

Reserva Real is Romeo y Julieta's smooth, mild-to-medium line, built around a silky Ecuador Connecticut wrapper. The Toro is its most popular size, and it's a dependable choice when you want something refined and easy rather than bold.

What it tastes like

This is a creamy, approachable smoke with a deep woody backbone. Expect cream and cedar up front, roasted almond and light coffee through the middle, and just a subtle spice keeping it from being flat. The Ecuador Connecticut wrapper (light, silky, golden-brown) sets the smooth tone, while the Nicaraguan binder and Dominican-Nicaraguan filler add a little body. At 6 by 54 it gives you a relaxed hour of cool smoke.

Who it's for

Reserva Real is a great step up for beginners who've enjoyed an ultra-mild cigar and want something with a bit more flavor but still no harshness. It's also a fine morning or daytime smoke for veterans. If you like smooth Connecticut wrappers, our Maduro vs Connecticut guide explains what that wrapper brings to the table.

Pair it with morning coffee and take it slow. Keep notes on your mild-and-creamy favorites in the Casa DNC app.
