ROMEO Y JULIETA 

Named after William Shakespeare’s tragic lovers, the origins of Romeo y Julieta as a Havana 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 heyday no less than 20,000 different bands were used in the production of cigars.

Winston Churchill became a devotee of the brand and 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 Churchills.

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 Havana.

Today Romeo y Julieta is as well known around the world as ever and offers one of the widest range of tripa larga, totalmente a mano – long filler, totally handmade – sizes of any Havana brand.

SHORT CHURCHILL

Upon its release in 2006 this cigar became the first medium flavoured robusto from Cuba. This modern shape also proved an ideal way to update the famous association of the Churchill name with Havana cigars. Hardly surprising then that it has gone on to become such a huge success.

Tasting Notes

An easy drawing, medium flavour, light strength cigar that is sweet in taste from the first to the last puff.

----

92 / 100

"Rich in appearance with a reddish tinge to the wrapper. It’s a cedary smoke with a dried fruit midpalate and fresh tobacco finish that carries a slight note of honey..."

Initial problems with the outer wrapper. Was split at the lighting end, and split at the mouth end when I made the cut. Managed to smoke it besides, and it ended up a great smoke despite the wrapper problems. Easy draw. Enjoyed it with an Admiral Rodney rum from St. Lucia. Not too strong, not too weak. Leathery and peppery and creamy smoke. Real Cuban flavour. Getting cocoa and chocolatey notes which worked with the Caribbean rum. Uneven burn that needed touching up with my Colibri lighter. Despite the wrapper issues it was a great smoke - would not stop me from trying the Romeo y Julieta Short Churchill Cigar again. The draw was superlative throughout. I really struggle with a tight draw.

Picked up a box of 10 today from Turmeaus Chester. Couldn’t wait so took one out this evening. Recently I’ve been smoking H. Upmann Half Corona’s and a couple of Cohiba Siglo II’s. This cigar is just beautiful. The effortless draw is the first thing that pleases, I just love it when you don’t have to fight a cigar. The burn is perfectly even. The 1st third had light, chocolatey flavours with the coolest taste. The middle was more heavy with complexity and the end didn’t disappoint with all the classic flavours expected from Romeo’s. 10/10 - loved it and if the rest are just as nice I think I’ll be getting another box in a month or two. Also to note, the team in Chester were fantastic as always, a pleasure to deal with. Thanks Team.

Don’t know if I had a duff one but my last one was not good. I cut it as per usual fashion taking care with the cap not too short. The wrapper unraveling came as a surprise and it was only the band that kept it totally destroying itself. The taste was ruined and I gave up on it ….. expensive cigar to bin….
