Romeo y Julieta Wide Churchill

The Romeo y Julieta Wide Churchill is a modern classic, launched in 2010 to meet the growing demand for cigars with larger ring gauges. It features the robust “Montesco” vitola, measuring 133 mm (5 1/4 inches) in length with a 55 ring gauge - the widest Churchill in the brand’s portfolio. This cigar is hand-rolled using select tobaccos from Cuba’s renowned Vuelta Abajo region and is known for its approachable, medium-bodied profile. With a name like this it will come as no surprise that this is seen by many as a fine example of the modern trend toward wider ring gauge cigars.

Cigar Aficionado: 'It is one of the best Cubans we smoked all year. Habanos seems to have taken all the magical elements of the Churchill and condensed them into this plump format. The smoke is earthy and leathery, accented by notes of graham cracker, cinnamon, orange peel and honey.'

Founded in 1875 by Inocencio Alvarez and Manin Garcia, Romeo y Julieta is one of Cuba’s most celebrated cigar brands, named after Shakespeare’s iconic lovers. The brand quickly earned a reputation for quality and innovation, becoming a favourite among European aristocracy and even Sir Winston Churchill, whose name graces one of the brand’s most famous vitolas. Over its long history, Romeo y Julieta has been known for its balanced blends, elegant presentations, and a wide range of sizes, making it a staple for both seasoned aficionados and newcomers to Cuban cigars.
