I saw that this cigar got a pretty high rating in Cigar Aficianado so I was interested in buying a couple to see how close CA was to the truth. I have tried everywhere but I can't find the damned things. Even J & R which is owned by Altadis and who makes R & J did not have it in stock, at least on their site. Can anyone help me? 😞

Here's a little help.

Take any of the ratings in CA (or any cigar magazine for that matter) with a grain of salt.

I generally avoid all things Altadis. However, I also generally try not to walk out of a B&M without buying at least ONE cigar. If I've stumbled into a General/Altadis-only type B&M, I'll usually pick up either a Brickhouse or a Romeo if they don't have higher end Fuentes. The Romeo is not complex, but the flavor is all Nic. It is a pretty decent single-dimension. Chewy and softly spicy.

Hey guys; all I'm asking is for someone to tell me where I can buy them and try 'em. I know CA sucks. 🇨🇮

Google is your friend. Try typing romeo by romeo y julieta in the search engine box. Hit enter.

Alternatively, ask at your B&M.

I tried Googling as Abrignac suggested. The only site I could find them was at Mike's Cigars which, I believe, is down in Florida but sells online. The only problem is that they only list them, but don't list any price or a way to order them on their site. This seems to suggest that they are on order but haven't arrived. Any more suggestions???? 😕

My suggestion is to edit your post to remove competitor reference before you get hit with the timeout stick.

If you REALLY want them I can check my b&m but they price at msrp or above.

I do believe I saw them at my local a while back. ( BIG letters on the band ? )

I'll check.

My local has them for sure. Pm me if you want. I am in Illinois so tax may be high.

Google is not my friend. Bing is my friend.

Have you called CI? They'll do you a deal for internet-less cigars if you call them.

Still trying. I can understand the reluctance to mention C-Bid's competitors but let's face it--they exist. To date, I have not found a single competitor to match the deals at Cigars International, Cigar.com or C-Bid, which are one and the same for some ungodly reason. And no, I DON'T want to pay more than MSRP. I only look stupid. 🇨🇮

Just saying the banhammer has fallen in the recent past for the same.

My local has them. Iirc $6-7ea.
