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

Spice, cedar and leather make this mild cigar a nice little treat. With a good burn and very good construction this is very enjoyable.

My first Romeo y Julieta N°3. It was a pleasant smoke that was not strong, earthy for the 1st 1/3 then light and creamy for the 2/3. The last 1/3 was strong and the cigar leaf started to unwrap and became very spongy but held. Overall a lovely 30 min smoke which suits a light after dinner smoke. Would buy again to compare to the first.

Not my favorite RyJ, but a nice little 45 minute stick none the less. Throughout I was treated to the taste of wood, leather and earth, with a little hint of spice on the finish. Fantastic smoke output and well constructed overall.

Bought two of these recently. The first was very good indeed. Not quite as flavoursome as my favourite Partagas and Bolivar equivalents but enjoyable all the same. However the second was absolutely awful. The construction, burn and draw were terrible. I had to keep relighting to stop it from tunnelling, the draw was very tight and there was hardly any smoke or flavour whatsoever. I recently had the misfortune of sampling a Cuaba Divino, which are made at the same factory, with similar results. Unfortunately 1 from 3 is not a good ratio at all. I think I'll be steering clear of this brand in the future.

Mild, with a little spice kick throughout. I was most impressed with the amount of thick smoke this one put out. Ill be buying again.

Can't fault the No. 3 really. In smoking my first one I realised that I am more of an Upmanns man but certainly not because there is any major fault with the Romeo No 3. The first 3rd although very mild is intriguing and friendly in pronouncing what's come. I pared it with an Italian espresso but only for the first 3rd. By the second 3rd I had a glass of beer beside me and, I hate to admit, was listening to a bit of Chopin. The second is when the character of the cigar came home and, like the best cuban cigars I have so far smoked, the cigar insisted of reminding me of all the people and hard work that went in to building such a fine thing. I am not the best in describing flavours but I can tell that when I start to think deeply about the work behind my smoke is when I know am smoking something that will be memorable to me. Final 3rd; I have to admit, this is the first time I have had to re-light a cuban cigar but I wasn't all that bothered, it's a well built cigar regardless. As to be expected, a cigar this size gets a bit hot and challenging towards the end but it's got a good spice and I went well beyond the label before deciding to call it a day. The reason I say I prefer an Upmanns (Coronas Junior I mean) is that whereas the Romeo No.3 waits until the second 3rd to properly announce itself an Upmann's Junior is generally a good conversationalist from the outset. But none-the-less the No.3 is a great little smoke.
