Romeo Y Julieta - Petit Royales - Box of 25
Romeo Y Julieta - Petit Royales - Box of 25
A box of 25 cigars, the connoisseur's choice for laying down and ageing.
A short, stout size whose factory name, 'Caprichos', comes from the Spanish for 'whims'. Made to the classic medium-bodied Romeo y Julieta blend for when time is short.
Named after Shakespeare's lovers, Romeo y Julieta dates back to 1875. It rose to fame under Don 'Pepín' Rodríguez, an early champion of the cigar band, and Winston Churchill's 1946 visit to Havana gave the brand its best-known size name. Its balanced, aromatic blend of Vuelta Abajo filler and binder makes it the classic medium-bodied Havana. Flavour: Medium.
