Romeo y Julieta Linea de Oro Dianas

The Romeo y Julieta Línea de Oro Dianas is the pinnacle of luxury within the Romeo y Julieta portfolio, introduced in 2020 to commemorate the brand’s 145th anniversary. A Toro measuring 5¾" × 52, it is hand-rolled in Cuba from only the finest Vuelta Abajo tobaccos, each cigar adorned with an elegant gold band and a distinctive golden foot band, and presented in a striking red lacquered box with an embossed medallion. The Dianas delivers a medium-to-full-bodied experience — a clear step up in strength and complexity from the classic Romeo line — over a refined, slow-burning 40–60 minute smoke. Close in size to the celebrated Cohiba Siglo VI, it shares that cigar’s ring gauge with an extra 5mm of length. Cigar Aficionado noted its even draw and burn, starting cedary and grassy before turning creamy with cappuccino, mocha and almond.

Across its long history, Romeo y Julieta has been known for balanced blends, elegant presentation and an exceptionally wide range of sizes, making it a staple for seasoned aficionados and newcomers to Cuban cigars alike. The Línea de Oro represents the brand at its most luxurious.

The Línea de Oro (“line of gold”) was launched in 2020 for Romeo y Julieta’s 145th anniversary — a super-premium line marking the brand at its most luxurious, complete with gold bands and a lacquered presentation box.

The Dianas is deliberately close in size to the acclaimed Cohiba Siglo VI — same ring gauge, just 5mm longer — positioning it squarely among Cuba’s most prestigious large cigars.

Each cigar carries not just a gold head band but a matching golden foot band — an unusual, luxurious touch that signals the Línea de Oro’s premium status before you even light it.
