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.

Tasting Notes

Very nice draw and burn. Mild, fruity flavours with undertones of leather and earth.

"...A skinny, veiny cigar with easygoing notes of flowers and herbs balanced by spicy, peppery undertones and sweet hints of caramel and cocoa..."

The final cigar from my Jack Frost sampler, but not my first ever RyJ. Smoked this in two halves. The first half I smoked left me a bit bored and disappointed, I couldn’t really identify any flavours, was mostly just a smooth, creamy smoke. Not unpleasant by any means, just somewhat uneventful. However the second half, the following day, was a delight :S really rich, spicy and woody... I’ve smoked a dozen or so Cubans now and, so far, maybe it’s just me but, unless it’s an astonishing cigar, the spicy, earthy flavours never kick in until about halfway down the cigar. This one was typical of that along with the Jose L Piedra Cazadores cigar which also left me cold until the halfway mark, and then turned beautiful! I’ve never aged a cigar as I’m yet to purchase a humidor so perhaps with age flavours develop and present immediately on lighting up the cigar, I don’t know... This was a good cigar but I will sample other Cuban brands before returning to RyJ, I think they’re maybe a touch over-hyped. I find Montecristo’s richer in flavour and complexity.

Tighter than a midges foreskin. Stevie Wonder could have seen that this was unsmokeable. Getting fed up with Cubans most are no better than a good new world( padron , Fuentes, brick house...,.) Waste of £12.50 not happy

Smooth, tasty smoke. Didn't buy from Cgars (sorry guys) but finished work for the week and wanted a smoke NOW. Paid a bit more from my local store, but was still worth the price. Sat out on my patio. Clear sky, bit cold as it's February. But smoked this down to the end. Are there better smokes out there? Yes. But, for a tubed, fairly cheap Cuban. You really can't go wrong. If you're new to cigars, you should definitely give it a go. If you're not, you should still give it a try. I'll definitely be ordering a few more.

Lovely cigar. As a beginner I appreciate a tasty uncomplicated smoke and this cigar came through in style. Lovely flavours developing nicely throughout with an easy draw. Held it's own against two pints of Guinness without being overwhelmed and stayed tasty to the end.

Great smoke. This was my first Romeo y Julieta cigar and it was light and smooth with a fairly even burn (it started getting a little uneven at the start of the final third) and held its ash well. It went very well with a cappuccino. Creamy throughout and got a little spicy in the final third. I haven't given it 5 stars as there are others I prefer, although I found this a great afternoon/ lunchtime smoke and will likely get some more.
