The Romeo y Julieta Reserva Real Nicaragua Midnight Twist cigar brings together multiple concepts from the famed RyJ brand, amounting to one of the longest cigar titles you're likely to find in humidors. For starters, 'Reserva Real' is a staple in the Romeo line, likely being what most think of when picturing the RyJ brand. Then you have 'Nicaragua,' which signifies the brand's recent expansion to Central America. Finally, 'Midnight Twist' is a play on the former Reserva Real Twisted cigar, named for the twisted nature of the cigar's barber pole wrapper.

In terms of tobacco, what this all amounts to is a similar core recipe as the blend it's modeled after: Romeo y Julieta Reserva Real Nicaragua. This includes all-Nicaraguan leaves grown on the acclaimed fields of A.J. Fernández. Giving the blend its twist, the tobaccos have been finished with two contrasting wrapper leaves—one light and one dark—giving the cigar its unique look and smoking profile.
