Flavors: lively note of fresh sweet red apple on the front,
slightly tart green apple on mid and finish, crisp clean pear, do they have a
pear flavored cotton candy at the local fair? … if not this will do.
Mouthfeel: it is a Demi-sec so it is on the sweet side without
being overly sweet. Super fine fizzy bubbles help to tingle the tongue for a
crisp feel. Slightly tart finish that lingers on the palate along with the
dominate cotton candy sweetness.
The Cigar
Romeo y Julieta Casino II
Reserva Real
Wrapper: Connecticut Shade Ecuadoran
Binder: Nicaraguan
Fillers: Dominican and Nicaraguan
Size: 6 x 50
$11.25 a stick
Flavor Profile: this is a nice and mellow stick. Mild white mushroom and light dry soil earthy
tones; warm fresh buttered bread; very mild body weight and clean aftertaste. This is as simple as it gets while still
being tasty.
My Strength Rating: 1.5 – very mild
The Pairing
This is a nice pairing like I thought it would be. Both are mild to very mild in body. The mellow flavor of the cigar co-mingles
with the crisp yet sweet fruity flavors of the bubbly. The cigar also helps to manage the sweetness
on the wine.
