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

These cigars are packed full of smooth, subtle, medium flavoured aromas which are the trademark of the Romeo y Julieta brand.

This is a lovely cigar. I would have given it 5 stars, however the first part was clogged, and the wrapper also peeled off while smoking which caused some difficulties. If those two things didn’t happen, it would been ideal. Also didn’t give me cigar sickness which is always a massive plus.

I must admit, I bought my Wide Churchills whilst in Ypres, Belgium (£12 for a single stick!) six months ago and they have been sat in my humidor ever since, until last night. It was a fantastic smoke from start to finish - Im not usually a fan of the final third of cigars, but I smoked this down to my finger and thumb. It took me approx 75 mins to get through. Id say it was a smooth and mellow smoke (Ive said in other reviews I cant pick out individual flavours), with the draw improving half way through the first third. I did have a slight problem with uneven burn on two occasions, but I didnt care - this smoke was worth the wait and I cant wait to fire up another.

My personal review of the Romeo y Julieta Wide Churchill Cuban cigar At first sight it is a beautifully looking decadent cigar with double banding and fantastic construction, 55 RG it is not the choice of most but the larger gauge helps th e flavours of citrus and mild pepper flow through so easily with a perfect draw mild to medium strength it is perfect for all from the beginner to the aficionado the resting cigar gives off lots of smoke so you definitely know it is still lit with an excellent burn Even if you only try this cigar once it is a fabulous experience and may become your favourite cigar, I know it is certainly mine now my previous favourite was the Hoyo Epi 2 but the Wide Churchill is sheer indulgence with a superb aroma 95/100 an excellent Christmas cigar
