Named after William Shakespeare's tragic lovers, the origins of Romeo y Julieta as a Habano date back to 1875.

The brand rose to international fame during the early years of the 20th Century under the direction of Don 'Pepin' Rodriguez, a talented promoter, who was amongst the first to recognise the power of the cigar band. During his hey day no less than 20,000 different bands were used in production.

Winston Churchill became a devotee of the brand. Following his visit to Havana in 1946, his name has not only been commemorated on a band but it has also served to describe the marque's most famous size - Romeo y Julieta Churchill.

The 21st century has seen the arrival of two additional sizes using the name. The first called Short Churchill, a robusto size that had been missing from the range, was added in 2006. The second launched as the 21st Festival del Habano in 2010, was Wide Churchills, which boasts a 55 ring gauge to mark the trend amongst enthusiasts for stouter girth vitolas.

Romeo y Julieta's balanced and aromatic blend of selected filler and binder leaves from the Vuelta Abajo zone make it the classic medium bodied Habano.

Today Romeo y Julieta is well known around the world as ever and offers the widest range of long filler sizes in any Habano brand.

"...A full draw delivers some muddled salty and spicy notes that soon come together for a complex, milk chocolate and woody tasting smoke that hints of dried cherry..."

This had great potential but was so tight it was hard to draw enough smoke into my mouth to be able to really taste. It was milder than I had expected but now and again gave a hint of what it might have been had it been less tight. Towards the end the wrapper split which was annoying. I’d try another but at this price the quality control needs to be improved.

Terribly tight draw, cigar became too hot due to pulling too hard on the little smoke that did pass through. Thoroughly disappointed as could have been a very nice cigar.

Great medium cigar with plenty to taste. Burnt extremely evenly and never went out. Maybe not an after dinner smoke as its not spicy but more of a lunchtime smoke sitting on a veranda with a glass of good shiraz.

Reviewed by Joe Gellman (27th December 2000) Hold the presses! This is a fantastic smoke. Not only were the samples I set aside for review great, but every stick in the box was "right on." Samuel Johnson wrote, several centuries ago "It is better that some should be unhappy than that none should be happy, which would be the case in a general state of quality." What, you ask, does this have to do with the cigar in question? Well, it's rather simple: I'm smoking this uncannily superior cigar and you aren't! The No. 4 is a Robusto, more correctly a Hermoso No. 4.; thus, its name. It is 5 x 48 (12.5 cm x 1.9 cm) and every cigar in the box was the same (as if sameness could be considered wrong). My dress box of 25 was very nice though I would love to have a cabinet of 50 (SLB) to store in my humidor. From the first, this cigar provided delight. The entire box had a sweet, fruity and cedary aroma. The cigars were a deep colorado. All looked rich, silky smooth, and when handled, supple yet not fragile. The cap was immaculately done and the foot was cut to perfection. This cigar was made to be smoked, but not before all the senses took it in. There was a distinct rich fruity taste before lighting. I was amazed at the quality of the cigar and lit it, quickly. The cigar lit well and burned evenly to the end. Cedar, floral, and fruit immediately came through from the first puff. While there was a sweetness to the cigar, it was subtle, not overpowering. The rich flavors never faltered and the cigar had a most perfect draw, cool and inviting. The aromas that wafted in the area caused me to stop for a moment and take it in. Marvellous, at the least. While there was no crescendo at the end of the smoke, the flavors and aromas only seemed to mature to the point that I simply had to light up a second one less The cigar was rich and medium bodied. This vitola is not of the old school of Havanas, but of the new generation, waiting to be discovered by one and all. I would ascribe the term "fresh" to this cigar and would not be surprised if it became one of the best sellers in this size. The taste lingered for a short time and left me with a fruity taste in my mouth quite unlike any other Havana. This is one cigar which I would very highly recommend and, if C.GARS Ltd's selection is all of the same mien, I would buy it quickly.

Reviewed by Joe Gellman (3rd May 2001) A rarity for Cuban cigars - all writers agree that this is an excellent cigar. Thinking myself a writer, I have to agree. I purchased a cabinet of this cigar and laid it away for a few weeks to settle, in my humidor. As I slid the cabinet lid open, I knew immediately, from the aroma wafting before me, that these cigars were going to be wonderful. I wasn't wrong. While I generally write a review after smoking one or two cigars, I wound up smoking five before I sat down to write about the cigar. Frankly, I was awed by the first to the point that I thought the wonder of this cigar must be a fluke. After my fifth cigar I came to the conclusion that I had to purchase another cabinet of these great cigars. The cigars were all firm, silky, a little deeper in hue than a Colorado Maduro, and finished by a holy driven hand. All were an exacting 5 x 48 with no distinguishing imperfections. By the time I smoked the fifth cigar the remaining cigars in the cabinet were beginning to show some bloom. The feel of the cigar was very pleasant, all having a subtle fruity and floral aroma to them. Pushing my semi-Bergerac nose into the cabinet, I was able to attest to a light sweetness as well as an occasional whiff of cedar. I was reading James Ellroy's Clandestine as I lit the last of the cigars. The cigar lit without hesitation and gave off a delightful floral aroma. The draw was perfect and, from the first, began to develop from a light to a full medium smoke, at the wondrous climax, nearly doing in my lips. The cigar was fresh throughout, always maintained a light sweetness, and happily developed a floralness unlike any other cigar. The cigar is certainly aromatic but it never appeared to be overwhelming. There was always a fruity flavor to the cigar, never overshadowing the other flavors and aromas. The finish to this cigar can only be described as BIG. With a perfect draw, running once or twice, the flavors all combine at the last third of the cigar. This, to the extent that I laid down my book and simply savored the cigar, making sure nothing interrupted my pleasure. I have noticed a distinct difference between the cabinet and the boxes of 25. There is more flavor and aroma in the cabinet cigars and I suspect they will age better. I already placed an order for a second cabinet.
