Experience the Romeo y Julieta 1875 Cedro Deluxe No. 2
Our staff has always regarded the Cedro Deluxe No. 2 as one of the most consistently excellent and versatile short robustos in the Romeo y Julieta 1875 lineup. Handrolled in the Dominican Republic, the Ecuadorian Connecticut wrapper offers delicate sweetness and finesse on the cold draw, backed by a Dominican binder and aged Dominican long-fillers. When smoked, the first third opens gently with sweet cedar, toasted almonds, creamy vanilla, and light cream for a medium-bodied introduction with rich smoke volume and refined texture. By the second third, the profile transitions seamlessly, deepening the creaminess while revealing light cocoa, subtle white pepper, sweet hay, and a touch of leather while the burn remains cool and even. In the final third, it finishes clean and elegant with lingering nutty sweetness, cedar, and a whisper of cocoa, burning steadily to a solid nub with impeccable ash hold and no harshness. A timeless showcase of Dominican excellence in the classic robusto format.
