Description
Romeo by Romeo y Julieta
is a bold and robust cigar unlike any Romeo y Julieta to come before it.
Made with the rarest and finest tobaccos carefully selected and delicately aged, Romeo cigars are meticulously crafted by a special team of the most accomplished artisans at the famed Tabacalera de García factory. The select Dark Ecuadorian Habano wrapper is handpicked for its dark, rich color and robust taste. The slightly mellow Dominican Piloto binder works harmoniously with the bold wrapper, and the unique filler blend of Dominican Piloto and Olor tobaccos completes this wonderfully complex full-bodied cigar that culminates in an unforgettable smoking experience.

”The Modern Evolution of a Legend”
The Romeo is the perfect choice for the smoker who loves the classic Romeo y Julieta name but wants a little more “body” and richness in their smoke. This isn’t your grandfather’s 1875; it’s a more robust, flavorful blend designed for today’s palate. It captures everything great about the brand’s history but turns the volume up to 10.
The Experience
The first thing you’ll notice is the stunning Ecuadorian Habano wrapper. It’s a beautiful, reddish-brown leaf that’s smooth and slightly oily. From the first light, the draw is perfect, offering a medium-to-full-bodied experience that is creamy but packs a punch. It’s a sophisticated smoke that balances power with elegance.

Owner’s Note: This is what I recommend when a customer says, “I like the 1875, but I want something with a bit more kick.” It’s incredibly reliable and stays smooth all the way to the nub. It’s the perfect “afternoon” cigar for when you really want to taste the quality of the tobacco.
