Cuban Cigars

Romeo y Julieta Club Kings

They are the first of two, much delayed, products to be released under the new ‘Linea Retro’ range, with a Partagas Capitols slated for a later release.

The retro metal tin has a flip-top lid, activated by pressing the logo on the front, and has been inspired by pocket cigar cases that were much in vogue in the 1970s. The original cases are now much sought after by collectors around the world and can fetch high prices when presented at auction.

The Club Kings are a classic mareva size ( 5⅛” (129mm) x 42) and so will be familiar to fans of the R&J No.2 Tubos, the Cedros de Luxe No.3 or the classic Petit Corona. All of which share the same dimensions.

This new cigar has been rolled to Romeo y Julieta’s classic medium bodied blend and provides a stylish and immanently portable alternative.

It has also been made “Totalmente a Mano con Tripa Larga”- Totally Handmade with Long Filler – after a careful selection of filler, binder and wrapper leaves from the best tobacco-growing plantation in the Vuelta Abajo area in Pinar del Río, Cuba.

Romeo y Julieta Cedros de Luxe LCDH is an elegant and delicate smoke with hints of leather and pepper. Ideal for an after-dinner treat.

Romeo y Julieta Petit Royales

Romeo y Julieta Wide Churchill

The Cigar

Here is one of the new generation of extra heavy weights which was released in 2010 and remains a unique size in the standard Habanos S.A. portfolio.

VITOLA: Montesco
RING GAUGE: 55
LENGTH: 5 1/4 inches - 130 mm
FLAVOUR: Medium

Romeo y Julieta Short Churchill

The Cigar

For too long there was no robusto in Romeo’s range, so the arrival of the Short Churchill in 2006 proved most welcome. It was the first medium flavoured cigar from Cuba in this popular vitola. Hardly surprising, then that it has been a huge success.

VITOLA: Robusto
RING GAUGE: 50
LENGTH: 4 7/8 inches - 124 mm
FLAVOUR: Medium

Romeo y Julieta Petit Julietas

The Cigar

The factory name tells us the size was designed for intervals at the theatre (Entreactos translates to Between Acts). There are many more reasons for short smoking breaks these days.

VITOLA: Entreactos
RING GAUGE: 30
LENGTH: 4 inches - 102 mm
FLAVOUR: Medium

Romeo y Julieta Petit Coronas

The Cigar

A mellow, well-balanced, pressed cigar, which, along with its round counterpart the No.2 tube, is by far the most popular Romeo size.

VITOLA: Mareva
RING GAUGE: 42
LENGTH: 5 1/8 inches - 129 mm
FLAVOUR: Medium

Romeo y Julieta Petit Churchill

The Cigar

2012 saw the arrival of the third and possibly the last of the additions to Romeo’s famous Churchill line. Petit Churchills join the Short and Wide Churchills to offer a range of heavy girth vitolas for all occasions

VITOLA: Petit Robusto
RING GAUGE: 50
LENGTH: 4 inches - 102 mm
FLAVOUR: Medium

Romeo y Julieta No.3 Tubos

The Cigar

Not as small a cigar as you might think. A decent ring gauge with a length that won’t leave you out in the cold too long. A really useful small cigar.

VITOLA: Coronita
RING GAUGE: 40
LENGTH: 4 5/8 inches - 117 mm
FLAVOUR: Medium

Romeo y Julieta No.2 Tubos

The Cigar

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

VITOLA: Petit Corona
RING GAUGE: 42
LENGTH: 5 1/8 inches - 129 mm
FLAVOUR: Medium

Romeo y Julieta No.1 Tubos

The Cigar

A slender Corona that offers good value for its size. Cedar-wrapped in an aluminium tube you can take it almost anywhere without fear of damage or loss of condition.

VITOLA: Crema
RING GAUGE: 40
LENGTH: 5 1/2 inches - 140 mm
FLAVOUR: Medium

Romeo y Julieta Exhibition No.4

The Cigar

This was the nearest cigar to a robusto in Romeo’s range for a long time; slightly thinner (48 ring gauge) but longer (5 inches). Don’t forget that it also comes in wonderful cabinet selection bundles of 50 cigars.

VITOLA: Hermoso No.4
RING GAUGE: 48
LENGTH: 5 inches - 127 mm
FLAVOUR: Medium

Romeo y Julieta Belicosos

The Cigar

Not a size or shape that is widely associated with Romeo, but it has been around for decades offering a reliable, easy drawing passport to the brand’s elegant, mediumbodied taste.

VITOLA: Campana
RING GAUGE: 52
LENGTH: 5 1/2 inches - 140 mm
FLAVOUR: Medium
