Construction and Craftsmanship
Each Escudos is entirely handmade, reflecting the time-honored traditions of Cuban cigar production. The blend incorporates tobacco that has been aged for two years prior to rolling, allowing the leaves to develop greater complexity and a smoother character. This extended aging process contributes to the refined smoking experience that Limited Edition releases are known for.
Presentation and Packaging
The Escudos features the standard Romeo y Julieta band A, elegantly complemented by a dedicated Limited Edition 2007 band that distinguishes it as part of this special annual release program. The cigars are presented in traditional dress boxes, each containing 25 cigars arranged for both protection and visual appeal.
Release Information
Introduced in 2007, the Escudos joined the prestigious lineup of Romeo y Julieta Edición Limitada offerings. As with all Limited Edition releases, this vitola was produced in restricted quantities, making it a sought-after selection for collectors and enthusiasts who appreciate the nuanced differences that aged tobacco and special production runs deliver.
