Churchill's Story in Romeo and Juliet

In the history of Cuban cigar creation, Romeo-Juliet cigars are one of the most famous cigar brands. It has been unanimously rated as "rare best" by the world's most authoritative cigar experts, and there are less than 10 cigars in the world that can be compared with it. Romeo-Juliet cigars are British Prime Minister Winston Churchill's favorite cigar brand, and they are also famous for being named after Churchill, the number one cigar customer in the world.


   Juliet No. 2 cigar is known as the "Cuban Rocket". This cigar is named in honor of British Prime Minister Churchill. It is a classic cigar of connoisseurship and is regarded as a proud giant among Cuban cigars.

 One of the reasons why Juliet 2 is famous is that it was once the favorite cigar of British Prime Minister Churchill and the most in demand cigar.

A cigar half smoked by former British Prime Minister Winston Churchill was sold for £365 at an auction house in Liverpool. On October 14, 1950, Churchill, as the leader of the Conservative Party, went to a small town in northwest England to attend a conference. When he walked to the conference hall, he was holding a cigar in his mouth, when someone told her that smoking was prohibited in the venue. He immediately pinched the half-smoked cigar and handed it over to a policeman beside him. As a result, the half of the cigar became a souvenir for the policeman. After his death, his family has been preserved to this day. After that, they handed the cigar half to the auction house, where it was bought by a private collector.


In addition, a humidor that Churchill once used also sold for a sky-high £8,700.
