Production Details

The Romeo vitola carries historical significance within the Romeo y Julieta portfolio. While the Romeo size was once a standard production offering, it has since been discontinued from regular circulation. The Romeos designation specifically refers to this special release iteration, distinguishing it from the original production format.

Each cigar in this release was crafted entirely by hand, maintaining the exacting standards expected of limited edition Cuban cigars. Collectors will note variation in the banding of individual cigars — some examples feature the standard band B, while others display band C, adding an element of intrigue for those examining multiple specimens.
