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 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 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 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.1 Tubos

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 Petit Coronas

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