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..."

Amazing with age making perfect, but they never survive… When young the sweet awaiting damson black fruit jam, with pediment woody earthiness and its own Cuban spices takes you away, but never over powers with a light to medium smoke… Although the beginning may seem a little boring, thats only because its new, any tightness of draw also goes after a few years too… use the perfect draw if you need to… This like its big brother is good, but great if youre able to keep it for ten years, when the flavours are really able to mature into crafted perfection… A Cuban cigar is a luxury and should be enjoyed slowly to permit the flavours to develop and evolve without the rush of the world intruding into the created sublime… NB: Always make sure that youre buying the long fillers and not the cheaper veriant as theyre not the same at all... C.gars only sell the real thing so youre safe here...

Great flavour as always from the No3. Very tight which has been my experience with the No3 in the past. Defo one of the most balanced and smooth flavour profiles of my sampler. But quite a lot of effort to keep in lit due to how tightly it was rolled. When waiting 30-40 sec between draws I had to puff a couple of times to get it burning for a full draw.

Not great in my opinion. Really tight drew and for the money there are 100s of cigars from the new world which would out smoke these by miles. Wouldnt recommend these to a friend but a great cigar to give to someone who has no clue about cigars, who will most likely never smoke one again and just wants to smoke a cuban. They are not complete rubbish and I know guys who love these (cuban snobs). Dont get me wrong, I love a good cuban, but these arent that imo!

I am sitting here in the garden under the patio heater with a glass of Johnnie Walker black label and one of these fantastic cigars, both of which I picked up for a steal duty free. I have tried plenty of Cuban cigars now and find myself returning to R and J all the time. Price and time allowing the Churchill and Wide Churchill are sublime. However I have found these no 2 to be the most consistent cigars that suit my taste. I’ve found with a lot of other brands that I’ve had more and more inconsistent ones, some absolutely unsmokeable. These start of very mild but develop just before half way leaving a fantastic spicy mouth. Think I am gonna stick with these from now on. Perfect 45-60 minutes of heaven.
