Romeo y Julieta Maravilla - Year of the Rat 2020

Romeo y Julieta has released a special one-off cigar to celebrate the 2020 Chinese New Year/Spring Festival.

Themed to honour the incoming Year of the Rat, eight Maravillas 8 cigars are presented in a bespoke red lacquered box. Each cigar dressed is with a classic Romeo y Julieta band as well as an additional foot band.  A branded red velvet sleeve completes the presentation.

Each cigar measures 6 1/8” (155mm) x 55 ring gauge and is referred to as a Maravillas No.3 in the factories of Cuba, sharing its dimensions with the extremely popular Montecristo 520 (2012 Edición Limitada).

As the number eight is considered an auspicious or ‘lucky’ number in Chinese culture, the Romeo y Julieta Maravilla 8 is sure to appeal directly to cigar enthusiasts from this part of the world, as well as collectors globally.

The cigar is a Maravilla No.3 vitola, the same as the Montecristo 520 2012 Limited Edition cigar, and are adorned with a second band on the foot featuring an image of a rat. A large vitola, this provides a long, enjoyable smoke.

The cigar was launched at two separate events at The Kerry Hotel in Hong Kong on 13th & 14th November and is now available worldwide. However, quantities are very limited and initial demand has been high so they may not be found on the shelves of UK cigar merchants for very long.

With Romeo y Julieta's balanced and aromatic blend of selected filler and binder leaves from the Vuelta Abajo zone, the brand is the classic medium bodied Habano. The Maravilla has great complexity to the flavour producing a beautiful white smoke. The wrappers used are stunning, and silky smooth, and the strength builds to medium full in the last third.

Length: 6 1/8" 
Ring Gauge: 55
Strength: Medium 
Vitola: Maravillas No. 3 

Romeo y Julieta Panetelas 

The Romeo y Julieta Panetela is now a discontinued cigar, but we have stocked up these boxes dating back to 1991. Very few can be found around these days. 

The cigar is mild in strength and has the typical flavours of a Romeo y Julieta Cigar.

This cigar comes in Boxes of 25's with each cigar wrapped in cellophane.

Ring Gauge: 35
Factory Name: Sports
Strength: Light

Characteristics of Romeo y Julieta Cigars
Robust and complex flavours, every kind of flavours imaginable, floral, nutty, herbal, tangy, fruity, woody, beans (cocoa, coffee, vanilla), are present. The hallmark unmistakable 'Romeo' style taste is the none of these flavours stands out in particular. 

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 Churchill Reserva 2012

The Cigar

Once one of the largest cigars available, this gentle giant now cuts a decidedly elegant and refined figure. It is at heart a polished cigar full of charm and grace. A wonderful way to celebrate Britain’s most famous cigar smoker.

FLAVOUR: Medium to Full
VITOLA: Julieta No.2 
RING GAUGE: 47
LENGTH: 7 Inches / 178mm 

Romeo y Julieta Wide Churchill Gran Reserva 2015

The Cigar

Released in 2010, the Wide Churchill has come a long way in a short pace of time. Nowhere is that better demonstrated than with the decision to honour the vitola with a Gran Reserva release, after only five years in the standard Habanos portfolio. 

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

Romeo y Julieta Robusto Limited Edition 2001

The Cigar 

It could be said that this cigar is an antecedent to the Romeo y Julieta Short Churchill, a 2006 release and fellow Robusto size. From the Short Churchill came the Wide Churchill and then followed the Petit Churchill. An interesting footnote in the emergence of the Churchill linea.

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

Romeo y Julieta Petit Royales

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

RING GAUGE: 30
LENGTH: 4 inches - 102 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.

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

Romeo y Julieta Churchill

The Cigar

Romeo’s time honoured star size. The vitola dates from the early 20th century. Churchill permitted his name to be used on it from the mid 1950s. Imposing, statesmanlike; a commanding size that rewards the smoker with richly developing flavours.

VITOLA: Julieta No.2
RING GAUGE: 47
LENGTH: 7 inches - 178 mm
FLAVOUR: Medium

Romeo y Julieta Cazadores
