I did not purchase this cigar from C. Gars as a longer version was gifted to me, the experience is my own and was enjoyable. This review will be posted on the other Churchill bands as the flavour remains the same but the cigar band is the only thing that differs.
The Romeo y Julieta Churchill is one of those cigars that instantly feels special from the moment you pick it up. For someone like me still building experience, this cigar set a new benchmark for what a refined, classic Cuban should deliver. It’s beautifully constructed—firm, smooth, and fragrant before lighting. On the cold draw, I got soft notes of cedar, earth, and a hint of sweetness.
Once lit, the first third opened with that signature Romeo y Julieta creaminess, layered with mild spice and wood. The smoke was smooth and aromatic, never harsh, and the draw was perfectly balanced. As it developed, gentle floral and nutty tones appeared, with moments of cocoa and toasted almond weaving in. The burn line was impressively even throughout, showing the kind of craftsmanship the brand is known for.

Perfect construction and fill means perfect draw using a guillotine cut, nice amounts of relatively dense white smoke, lovely cool burn. Initially has a hit of spicy black and white pepper alongside some unexpected, creamy sweetness, shifts to bittersweet cacao and leather alongside light roasted nut, strength is low, body is a medium low. Ash holds for an inch revealing a perfect cone. Good looking, hugely understated cigar, perfectly even mocha coloured wrapper. Well worth buying a box at this price.

Absolutely beautiful looking cigar, slightly oily to the touch with a stunning mocha coloured, smooth wrapper, combined with the beautiful looking bands makes for a really understated but classy looking cigar. Incredibly packed, feels heavy in the hand, quite a tight draw, initially cut with a single V, I needed a second V to open it up, even then smoke output is thin...needs 2 or 3 draws to get decent amounts. Very smooth, slightly sweet, slightly creamy upfront followed by roasted almond, black pepper and some gentle leather and coffee. Ash retention is around an inch or so and quite flakey, burn is slightly uneven but no corrections needed. Amount of draws needed for decent amount of smoke leads to slight overheating. Decent enough, not sure I'd have another.
