Romeo Y Julieta Cuban Cigars
Romeo Y Julieta began in the 1850's and was officially registered in 1873.
RYJ was a brand that in the beginning specialized specifically in figurados.
Of course as with many brands in the 1960's and 1970's there was a
steady decrease in production and out right discontinuation of many sizes that had
fallen in popularity. Rich, flavorful cigars that everyone can enjoy.
Very aromatic!
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" Fernandez,
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 Romeo y Julieta.
Since 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
measuring 7 inches (178 mm) by 47 ring gauge — the Churchill.
Romeo y Julieta’s balanced and aromatic blend of selected leaves from the
Vuelta Abajo region make it the classic medium bodied Habano.
Today Romeo y Julieta is as well known around the world as ever and offers the
widest range of totalmente a mano, tripa larga - totally hand made,
long filler - sizes available in any Habano brand.
