The Romeo y Julieta Wide Churchill debuted in 2006 as a larger version of the original Churchill vitola. Measuring 5 ¼ inches (135mm) with a 55-ring gauge, this Toro-format cigar uses Vuelta Abajo tobacco from Cuba's Pinar del Río region. The increased ring gauge contributes to a slower combustion rate and consistent smoke output.
Construction and Smoking Characteristics
Handcrafted with a slightly oily Cuban wrapper, the Romeo y Julieta Wide Churchill maintains structural integrity throughout the smoking session. The blend's combustion properties produce steady ash formation and minimal relight requirements. Tube packaging helps preserve humidity levels during storage.
Flavor Progression
- Initial third: Cedar and roasted nut notes with subtle earthiness

- Final third: Coffee bean characteristics with residual natural sweetness
Physical Specifications
The 55-ring gauge configuration allows for extended smoking duration compared to standard Churchill dimensions. Box-pressed variants feature slightly angular edges while maintaining draw consistency. Tube versions include individual aluminum protective cases measuring 14.5cm in length.
