Was Winston Churchill a great lover of the dramas of his compatriot William Shakespeare? In any case, Shakespeare's famous lovers Romeo and Juliet were the inspiration for the Spanish-language naming of the Romeo y Julieta brand. One of the oldest brands among top-of-the-line Habanos, the manufacture has been in existence since 1875. The brand rose to world fame during the early 20th century under the leadership of Don "Pepin" Rodríguez, a talented businessman who was one of the first to harness the power of recognized cigar rings. During its heyday, no fewer than 20,000 different cigar rings were used in production. Churchill's visit to Havana one year after the end of the war left a lasting mark on the history of the brand. On the one hand, his name was on the cigar ring from then on, on the other hand, the brand's best-known format was named after him: Romeo y Julieta Churchill. A great honor that was very flattering for the famous English politician. Smoking the Habanos named after him was his great passion - recorded millions of times in books and on postcards and a priceless promotion for the brand, which is particularly appreciated by aficionados of medium-bodied Habanos.
