Romeo y Julieta Reserva Real Twisted is a truly unique edition from this iconic company.
With attention to detail, the Twisted contains a vintage three country blend. The twisted name comes from the fact that the cigar uses two wrappers in a barber pole fashion. One is a Connecticut seed shade and the other a habano. Both are Ecuadorian. Underneath is a Nicaraguan binder over filler tobaccos from the Dominican Republic and Nicaragua.
With this in mind, these cigars offer a wide open draw yielding heaps of aromatic smoke and naturally sweet tobacco taste with subtle peppery spices. Without doubt, this is very complexly tasting cigar for sure! Cigar Coop thinks very highly of this very special Romeo. They describe it perfectly. “This cigar does a nice job building on the foundational elements of the Romeo y Julieta Reserva Real. It delivers a little more boldness, a little more complexity, and some richer flavors.”
To put it another way, the Romeo Twisted is another winner from this legendary brand.

This amazing Lancero contains a special blend consisting of an Ecuadorian Sumatra wrapper, Nicaraguan binder and filler from Nicaragua and the Dominican Republic. Not to mention, being made under the supervision of cigar industry icon, Ernesto Perez-Carrillo.
Cigar Aficionado claims this 7 1/2 x 38 Lancero possesses bold flavor notes of licorice, charcoal, nuts and leather coming through before a spicy finish.
Halfwheel touts this special cigars very good overall construction and wonderful balance with a 90 rating. To say this is a complex tasting cigar is an understatement with their take. “There is quite a bit going on in the lancero vitola, including main flavors of popcorn, cedar and cocoa nibs and almonds that show up at various points, not to mention a sadly fleeting mint note in the second third and a persistent and distinct maple syrup sweetness on the retrohale.”
Match this to senior reviewer KATMAN‘s stellar score of 95 and there’s no doubt this Crowned Heads entry for 2022 is a winner!

Diesel Fool’s Errand Stubborn Fool is a collaboration between Justin Andrews of Scandinavian Tobacco Group and AJ Fernandez and the first edition of the Fools Errand trilogy line.
The construction of the old school Perfecto containing an exquisitely dark and oily Ecuadorian Sumatra wrapper encasing a blend of Nicaraguan Habano filler and binder leaves from AJ’s farm is second to none.
The result is a robust and flavorful medium to full bodied cigar with flavor notes of cocoa powder, cedar wood, spices and bits of ground pepper. The draw from Stubborn Fool is perfect and the aromatic smoke is a joy to behold. Natural tobacco taste encompasses this blend from start to finish.
Noted reviewer KATMAN rates this Fool’s Errand edition an awesome score of 94. But BEWARE…When this limited edition cigar is gone….it’s gone. Get some while they’re still around!
