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

Consistent high quality of draw and strength. Sweet, creamy with hints of chocolate.

85 / 100

"...Wrinkly with a good cap, this petit corona burns unevenly. After some wet wood and mushroom notes, the cigar warms to show medium-bodied coffee and leather flavours..."

I tried the Cedros de Luxe No. 3 for the first time tonight and from the second I lit it, it became my new favourite cigar. The taste is absolutely fantastic, very creamy and tastefully sweet, I'm still tasting on my tongue. The construction and appearance was great although I had to touch it up due to a slight uneven burn, but it was worth it. Perhaps my favourite thing about it aside from the taste was how good the draw was, the perfect amount of resistance (very little) with lots of creamy, rich smoke pouring through from the first (and I mean very first) drag, to the last. And as if that wasn't enough, the price is very good for such a great stick. It's £2 less than my previous favourite stick, great value for a real gem. I cannot recommend this enough, new cigar smokers will love it. Give it a try!

Well this is my second RyJ Cedros No.3 from a second order and it will be my last I honestly believe that they put the cedar wrap on the cigar to disguise the ugliness and vainy wrapper hardly much different to the Guantanamera Cristales i smoke and enjoy regularly I expected more from RyJ so to continue and having taken the cedar wrapper off found the cigar very solid in fact too solid I clipped the cigar with my Xikar cutter and then toasted and lit the cigar , It was very hard to draw and took all the pleasure out of smoking it, the smoke and flavours were lovely then the uneven burning started again, I smoked the cigar for over an hour but never became any easier to draw so was virtually exhausted at the end, never again, and really putting me off the RyJ brand as the Churchill my wife bought me for my birthday was a pain to, Going back to my Staple but lovely Cristales and ordered a Monty No.4 the world most popular Cuban and also a Por Larranaga Petit Corona looking for a cigar thats a good smoke strait away and with the potential for ageing when I get Adorini Humidor

Well first one of these and have to say they would have been my ideal cigar, well built and a nice draw with a beautiful mild but very flavorsome taste, A big issue of uneven burn came into play after the first third and also it went out twice so sounds like a cigar that carnt be left unattended for too long also a minor point but I like to leave the band on my cigars call it snobbery or just some where to hold the cigar you carnt really put the band back on once you have removed the cedar wrap has it is too loose being made to the wrap and cigar, might have been unfortunate with this particular one so will give the benefit of doubt and try another one very soon.

A really enjoyable cigar having smoked a variety of cubans this I like most. Even burn and good draw. Pleasant mild creamy taste,no bitterness and cool to the end.
