FORT LAUDERDALE, FL – In another way Romeo y Julieta Cigars is able to tie the theme of Love to a new cigar release, the iconic brand is sharing something special with premium cigar lovers this Spring – the Romeo y Julieta Book of Love cigar.
This limited-edition premium cigar, which begins shipping to retailers on June 5, pays homage to the two star-crossed lovers who gave the brand its name and helped it gain an unparalleled reputation among cigar aficionados worldwide.
The Romeo y Julieta Book of Love boasts an exquisite, chocolate-hued Ecuador Sumatra wrapper complemented by masterfully-aged Dominican binder and fillers. The result is an aromatic, medium-to-full bodied blend issuing rich notes of cedar, coffee, dark chocolate and a touch of sweet spice. All-in-all, the blend provides a captivating smoking experience that is never overpowering.
“The Romeo y Julieta Book of Love is one of the most flavorful blends we’ve ever made for the Romeo y Julieta brand,” said Pedro Ventura, director of operations. “The most predominant tobacco in the blend is the Dominican Piloto variety from two regions of the Dominican Republic – Navarrete and La Canela – located in the heart of the Cibao Valley.
The Book of Love is presented by cigar maker Altadis U.S.A. in an enchantingly beautiful 10-count, library book-style box. Expected to arrive in time for Father’s Day, this luxurious set not only makes for a beautiful gift, but as a timeless Romeo y Julieta memorabilia collector’s item.
