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.

NO. 2

Romeo's best known and most popular size. A round cigar, as opposed to the pressed Petit Corona, it comes in a cedar-lined tube. Medium flavoured elegance ready where and when you want it.

Tasting Notes

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

90 / 100

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

First half not so enjoyable, second half contains all the flavoir and good stuff.

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.
