Medium to Full Flavour - 4 3/4" length (120mm) x 42 ring gauge - I smoked this cigar accompanied with some 7 year old Havana Club.... what a perfect combination! Medium flavour and slightly lighter strength than the 2 larger sizes but no less pleasing. The blend reminds me somewhat of the smaller Romeos although it does retain a reasonably distinct flavour. Medium colorado maduro wrappers, smooth and relatively vein free. A very decent daytime smoke. If you like the Cuaba Tradicionales you may wish to try: Punch Petit Corona and H. Upmann Gran Corona. Box of 25.

Every Cuaba is made in the distinctive shape known as double figurado. This was the style that at the end of the 19th Century was all the rage for Habanos. A century later, in 1996, this rich tradition was revived at the Romeo y Julieta factory where Cuabas are made. Double figurados are at the pinnacle of the cigar maker’s art and for this alone they merit a place in every cigar enthusiast’s collection. Cuaba, like Cohiba, is a Taino Indian word dating back to the time of Columbus. It was the word for a highly combustible bush, which the Indians used to light their "cohibas".
