Romeo y Julieta No. 2 Tubos (Box of 25). Gilbert de Monstsalvat Connecticut ShadeNamed after William Shakespeare's tragic lovers, the origins of Romeo y Julieta as a Habano date back to 1875. The brand rose to international fame during the early years of the 20th Century under the direction of Don 'Pepin' Rodriguez, a talented promoter, who was amongst the first to recognise the power of the cigar band. During his hey day no less than 20,000 different bands were used in production. Winston Churchill became a devotee of the brand.
