We are extremely happy to bring to you the first Habanos Limited Edition cigar for 2016: Romeo y Julieta Capuletos

Presented in dressed boxes of 25, the cigars measure 6" (153mm) x 53 ring gauge and carry the standard Edición Limitada second band. The factory name for this vitola (size) is Sobresaliente and it is the first time this size has been offered in the much loved Romeo y Julieta brand.

This vitola was most recently used by H&F for their 2014 UK Habanos Regional Edition which assumed the factory name as the commercial name (Por Larranaga Sobresaliente). This cigar proved to be a huge hit with Habanos enthusiasts and we believe the Capuletos will attract the same attention and following.

Sobresaliente translates to “outstanding” and we are sure the first Limited Edition of the year from Cuba will live up to its size name.

Limited Edition cigars use specially selected tobacco leaves grown in the Vuelta Abajo zone which are all then aged for a minimum of two years.

Tasting Notes

91 / 100

"...Enrobed in a reddish-brown cover leaf, this cigar's creamy smoke shows elements of wood, spice and cocoa powder, buttressed by a floral undertone..."

Unfortunately an absolutely horrific cigar. I was warned that the tacos limitada wasn´t worthy of a limitada and that the capuletos might be just like the tacos. Smoked it nonetheless yesterday and the warning of my friend was spot on. The flavour profile was at best slightly above average in comparison to standard stock havannas, even with the age it has by now. The burn was legendarily bad. Burned sideways continuously until the end. Given the poor quality and lacking taste, I highly suggest to anyone to look for other limitadas, for example the ramon allones allones no.2 or a QDO Senadores, both have been many times better.

Ok here goes; boo hiss! I found the over riding taste sensations to be salty and bitter. The wrapper is very veiny and the burn wildly erratic. In the last third you can tell that this may be a good cigar given time in the humidor. I wouldn't try another one of these for at least six or preferably 12 months. As a seller I would warn people about this as they are currently too green. In my opinion these are not ready to smoke. They are pricey. I would rather spend a few quid more and take a Partargas Lusitania or save a tenner and have a Ramone Allones specially selected. I'm basing my score on how this cigar is smoking now!

''This is the first Limited Edition of this Year which I think is perfect with our Stalla Dhu Speyside Whisky. I found this to be a Medium-to-full strength cigar more full bodied than I expected in comparison to the regular production of Romeo. The presentation is perfect with a nice dark Wrapper. The cigar begins with a lovely dark grey ash and a classic Romeo woody flavour with a few notes of almonds, Nuts and Brown Sugar. In the second part, there is an increase of the woody notes and you can find a nice mild, but full, white pepper flavour. The third part is gets stronger with lots of black pepper spicy notes and a hit of ginger. This cigar is perfect for this Christmas. Come to Turmeaus Liverpool and enjoy this cigar in our beautiful sampling room. David - Liverpool
