History
Named after William Shakespeare’s tragic lovers, the origins of R&J as a cigar brand date back to 1875. The brand rose to international fame during the early years of the 20th century under the direction of Don “Pepin” Fernandez,who was amongst the first to recognise the attraction of the cigar band. During his heyday no less than 20,000 different bands were used in production.
Winston Churchill became a devotee of R&J. Since his visit to Havana in 1946, his name has been commemorated on a band and used to describe the marque’s most famous size – 7 inches x 47 – the Churchill.
Tasting Notes
The Romeo Y Julieta Short Churchill is a perfectly balanced, medium flavoured robusto cigar. It is a personal favourite and is one of our best selling cigars. From start to finish this beauty emanates quality. Expect an earthy and spicy flavour with strong notes of walnut and maple.
Romeo y Julieta’s balanced and aromatic blend of selected leaves from the Vuelta Abajo region make it the classic medium bodied brand.
If stouter ring gauges are your favourite, why not try the Romeo Y Julieta Wide Churchill?
